DEEP-FRIED SQUASH PATTIES

Steps:

• Halve the squash and scrape out as many seeds as you can. Shred in a food processor, or on a box grater. Transfer to a mixing bowl and add cornstarch, onion, parsley, garlic powder, paprika, and pepper. Let rest for 15 minutes.
• Fold in bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese. Let rest for 15 minutes more.
• Lay out a 2- to 3-foot long sheet of waxed paper on a counter; dust with some of the sifted flour.
• Heat about 1/4 inch oil in a deep-fryer or large frying pan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Form patties out of the mixture, making them a bit smaller than tennis ball, about 1/2 cup each. Squeeze excess liquid out of each patty, then firm up outer edges with your thumbs before placing on the flour-dusted waxed paper; this helps to keep them from falling apart in the pan. Sift more flour over tops of the cakes.
• Drop patties into the hot oil using 2 spatulas; one to hold them in place, one to scrape and drop into the oil, working in batches. Cook until golden brown and tender, about 5 minutes per batch. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Repeat to cook remaining patties.
