SUMMER SQUASH FRITTERS WITH GARLIC DIPPING SAUCE
David Venable, the most popular host on QVC, has a reputation for comfort food in its most cheesy, porky forms. But he is also a son of the South, and loves his summer vegetables. This recipe shows off his appreciation of both and is a delicious way to use up summer squash. It might seem daunting to peel 20 cloves of garlic, but you can make quick work of it by smashing the unpeeled cloves lightly with the side of a knife. The papery part will be easy to remove, and the cloves will still roast up mellow and soft. The resulting sauce is also excellent on sandwiches.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 375 degrees, put garlic cloves in a small baking dish and add enough olive oil to cover. Roast until garlic is soft and golden, about 30 minutes. Cool.

- Combine flour, Cheddar, salt, pepper and garlic powder in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, gently whisk eggs with beer. Pour egg mixture into flour mixture and stir until combined. Stir in zucchini, yellow squash and onion.
- Heat canola oil in a large heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat. Drop about 1 tablespoon of batter into the oil per fritter and fry 6 fritters at a time until golden-brown, 2 to 3 minutes a side. Remove to paper towels to drain. Serve hot, with the sauce on the side.

ZUCCHINI FRITTERS
One day I wanted to serve zucchini as a side dish-but I didn't have the time to slice and deep-fry it. So I came up with these fritters instead! They go especially well with barbecued ribs or pork chops and corn on the cob. I'm an avid recipe clipper. I've also assisted at our church's Wednesday night suppers, cooking for as many as 125 people. -Mary Dixson, Catlin, Illinois

MOM'S YELLOW SQUASH FRITTERS
In the mid-Atlantic coastal area, we make our fritters with raw grated squash. I didn't find any recipes here that did, so I hope you will try these. Mom always made a huge batch of these for us. She had the magic touch! I always look forward to making squash fritters every summer. Note: I use either Canola oil or olive oil to make them healthier. I still use the butter because the fritters just taste better fried in butter. Even better, go out in your garden and bring in fresh squash to make this dish! Note: Corrections on July 17 include: 1 egg, beaten and 1 tsp. baking powder I cannot believe I left those ingredients out - I must have been tired. Sorry.

- Combine the baking powder with the flour. Add to squash mixture and blend together until you do not see any flour.

- As you continue to fry the fritters, you may find that you need to add more butter to the pan and melt it before adding more spoonfuls of the squash batter.
- Cooking time denotes making the whole batch.
- Note: Add more sugar and flour if you desire.
