Original Recipe Yield 10 to 12 servings
 

Ingredients

  • 2 cups shredded potatoes
  • 1 cup shredded yellow squash
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • 1 egg
  • 4 tablespoons self-rising flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic salt
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup cooking oil

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, combine potatoes, squash, onion, egg, flour, garlic salt, salt, and pepper. If the batter is too thin, add more flour; if too thick, add milk. Form batter into 3-inch patties.
  2. Cover the bottom of a large skillet with just enough oil to cover the bottom of the pan, and heat over medium-high heat. Place patties in hot oil, and cook until golden brown on each side; drain on paper towels.
