  4. Mix all ingredients well until a batter forms.
  5. Heat vegetable oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat.
  6. Spoon about two tablespoons of the batter into the skillet and flatten slightly to form a fritter shape.
  7. Cook the fritters for about 3 minutes on one side until golden brown and crisp.
  8. Flip the fritters carefully and cook the other side for another 3 minutes until golden and cooked through.
  9. Remove the fritters from the skillet and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.
  10. Serve the squash fritters warm with your choice of dipping sauce or a side salad.
