FRIED SQUASH AND/OR ZUCCHINI

Steps:

• 1. Slice squash into rounds 1/8"-1/4" thick.
• 2. When I have time, I salt the squash and let it sit for about 30 minutes to sweat out the excess water but when I am in a hurry I skip this step.
• 3. Combine milk and egg in a small bowl.
• 4. In a 2nd bowl (I use a plate) combine the flour, cornmeal, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
• 5. If you set the squash aside to sweat, dab them dry with a paper towel.
• 6. Then dip them in the egg mixture.
• 7. Then dredge them in the dry mixture.
• 8. Continue this process until all the rounds have been dredged.
• 9. Using enough to cover the bottom of the pan, heat oil in a large skillet using medium to medium high heat. Place squash in skillet and fry both sides of squash until golden brown.
• 10. Once fried, place on a paper towel to absorb extra oil.

• Heat the pan to medium.
• When it starts to sizzle begin stirring occasionally so as not to burn the squash and cook evenly.
• When the water evaporates, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of water.
• Keep tossing occasionally until the squash is half transparent and reasonably soft. (This takes about 15-20 minutes.).
• When the squash is to it's suitable consistancy, remove it from the heat and serve.
