Ingredients
8 medium yellow squash, shredded
1 onion, shredded
1 ½ tablespoons salt
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
1 cup all-purpose flour
½ cup cornmeal
1 large egg, lightly beaten
ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon vegetable oil, or as needed
Directions
Place squash and onion in a colander; sprinkle with salt and drain until no longer moist, about 30 minutes. Wrap vegetables in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much moisture as possible.
Mix squash and onion mixture, cheese, flour, cornmeal, and egg in a bowl; season with pepper.
Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Drop squash mixture by heaping tablespoonfuls into the skillet; cook patties until crisp and golden brown, about 3 minutes per side.
