How to cook deliciously - Crunchy Fried Squash

1. Stage

Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large frying pan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

2. Stage

Beat egg, milk, and salt in a shallow bowl. Place bread crumbs in another shallow bowl.

3. Stage

Coat both sides of squash slices in flour. Dip each slice in the egg mixture, then coat both sides with bread crumbs.

4. Stage

Place 4 to 5 slices in the hot oil and fry until golden brown and fork-tender, about 3 minutes on each side, using tongs and a fork to help turn them over in the pan. Do not overcrowd; overcrowding will reduce crispiness. Set fried slices on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil. Continue frying remaining slices. Let cool, about 5 minutes.

5. Stage

"Frost" slices with some of the vegetable cream cheese as desired. Serve while still warm, or at room temperature.
