Instructions
- Combine all ingredients. Heat some vegetable oil in a skillet on medium-high. Once the oil is hot enough that water drop of water sizzles when it hits the pan, form small fritters, about an inch in diameter, between your palms. The fritters will be soft and they won’t hold together well in your palms, but they will firm up once they start cooking. Fry on both sides until golden brown, about 2 minutes on each side side.Place the chipotle squash fritters in warmed soft taco shells with the taco toppings of your choice. Serve immediately.
