Fried Cymlings Patty Pan Squash With Bacon Recipes

Steps:

• In a cast iron skillet fry the bacon on medium heat until crisp. Set aside. When cool enough to handle, break up bacon into small pieces.
• In same pan, fry the patty pan squash until golden brown on both sides, stirring often to avoid burning, about 10 minutes.
• Season with salt and pepper to taste and transfer to serving dish.

Steps:

• Cut the top off the squash and clean out all the seeds.
• Mix all the ingredients together, stir to mix well.
• Stuff the squash, put it's hat back on.
• Place leftover stuffing in a piece of tin foil.
• Place the stuffed squash in a baking dish.
• Bake in 375 oven for apprx 1 hour.
• The baking time will depend on the thickness of the squash shell - mine was apprx1" thick.
• Put the leftover stuffing in the oven for the last 20 minutes of baking.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
• Bring one inch of water to a boil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add squash, cover, and cook for 10 minutes, or until a fork can pierce the stem with little resistance.
• Drain, and slice off the top stem of the squash. Use a melon baller to carefully scoop out the centers of the squash. Reserve all of the bits of squash. (I used larger squash so discarded the seeds - warning the squash is very liquidy in the center so I drained it a bit after scooping.
• Mince the reserved squash.
• Combine remaining ingredients in a bowl with the minced squash, mixing well.
• Stuff each squash to overflowing with the mixture, and place them in a baking dish. Cover the dish loosely with aluminum foil.
• Bake for 15 minutes in the preheated oven, or until squash are heated through.

Steps:

• Cook and stir bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crisp, 8 to 10 minutes. Add onions and cook in the bacon drippings until softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Add squash, salt, and black pepper; stir to coat.
• Cover skillet and cook squash mixture over low heat until tender, about 25 minutes.

Steps:

• Crack eggs into a pie plate, beat and add generous amounts of salt and pepper, mix well. Then in a large plastic zip-lock bag, add cornmeal and generous amounts of salt and pepper. Wash, peel and slice squash. Dip in egg wash and then cornmeal. Fry in 1/4 inch hot oil, for 2-3 minutes each side. Remove and set aside on paper towel to cool. Enjoy.

Steps:

• Preheat air fryer to 375°. Place squash in a large bowl. Mix oil, garlic, salt, oregano, thyme and pepper; drizzle over squash. Toss to coat. Place squash on greased tray in air-fryer basket. Cook until tender, 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Sprinkle with parsley.

Steps:

• Use a saute pan (with a lid) that will fit your 4 whole squash evenly. Add about 3 inches of water, lightly salt it and bring to a boil. Make sure your squash sit nice and flat -- cut off a bit on the bottom if need be, just not too much or you'll go through.
• Place your squash in the boiling water, cover and allow it to cook for about 10 minutes, until just fork tender. While the squash cooks, chop up your other ingredients.
• Once the squash is done, remove them gently and set them aside. Drain the water and clean out your pan.
• Returning the pan to the stove, heat the 1 tbsp of olive oil over medium heat. Add in the onion and cook for about 5-7 minutes, until translucent. Add in the garlic and cook for just a few minutes, watching it doesn't burn.
• Add in the raw rice and stir to coat. Add in the broth and bring to a boil. Depending on your broth, you may want to season with salt and pepper. Once at a boil, reduce the heat and cover. Cook for 45 minutes - at which time the rice should be cooked and liquid fully absorbed. (Depending on your rice, you may need slightly longer).
• While the rice cooks, cut the tops off of the squash (just below the green part). You want enough of a opening to work with, without wasting too much of the squash. Next, scoop out some of the insides being careful not to break through the sides or bottom. I like to score a circle using a paring knife and then scoop out with a regular teaspoon. It's basically the seedy part you want to remove, you don't have to take much from around the sides. You can chop up parts of what you scoop out and add it into the rice mixture. Set your squash aside again.
• Preheat your oven to 375. Have a baking dish ready (lightly oiled, or foil if you prefer).
• When the rice is done, take it off the heat and add in the 1/2 cup of parmesan, the fresh basil and spinach. Mix.
• Time to assemble. Using the 1 tsp of olive oil, lightly brush the outsides of the squash. Next, stuff the rice mixture into the hollow -- you can pack quite a bit in there, and have a bit overflowing on top. Place into the baking dish and finish by sprinkling the 1 tbsp of parmesan over top.
• Bake for 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Before shredding, cut out the stem of the squash, but there's no need to peel it. Remove any large seeds, especially if using a large squash.
• Preheat about 1/2 inch oil (I prefer olive oil) over medium-high heat in a deep skillet.
• Place the squash and onions into a large bowl.
• Beat the eggs, milk and oil into the squash/onion mixture. Then add the flour, baking powder, salt and pepper and mix all until combined.
• Scoop batter using a 1/4 cup measure and drop batter into hot oil. Do not crowd.
• Cook until brown, turn with a spatula and cook the other side until brown.
• Drain on paper toweling.
• Add oil to pan when necessary.
• Keep warm until served.
• Serve with horseradish sauce, ketchup or whatever you like. They are great as is!

Steps:

• In a baking dish, layer squash, drizzle with butter, sprinkle with basil and sprinkle with a small amount of salt and pepper to taste.

Slice squash 1/2 to 1 inch, depending on the thickness you want Mix each slice in flour, dip into the milk, dredge through cornmeal/flour mix, place on paper towel laden plate. If placing in fridge, remove after 20 minutes. Place 1 cup of oil in large pan, heated well on medium ( about 2-3 minutes) Place squash in pan, reduce flame, shake 1 tbs of mrs dash over squash. let cook no more than 5 minutes on each side, depending on the softness and your taste. Drain on paper towel.
