Country Fried Squash
from https://www.allrecipes.com/, by Maryanne
This recipe was my Grandmother's and it actually won a Blue Ribbon in the Tennessee State Fair! Be sure to use fresh squash, I use butternut but other squash would also be good.
6 pounds butternut squash - peeled, seeded and sliced
1 egg, beaten
½ cup milk
½ cup all-purpose flour
½ cup cornmeal
1 pinch salt
1 pinch ground black pepper
1 pinch garlic salt [use garlic powder]
1 cup oil for frying
Combine egg and milk together in a small bowl, mix well.
In a second bowl, combine flour, cornmeal, salt, pepper and garlic salt. Dip squash slices first in the egg mixture, then dredge the squash in the dry mixture.
Heat 1/2 inch of oil in a deep skillet over medium heat. Fry squash until golden brown.
