Method

Fritters Preparation

1

Prepare the Batter

In a large bowl, mix the shredded buttercup squash, all-purpose flour, red curry paste, eggs, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

2

Heat the Oil

In a deep frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until hot.

3

Fry the Fritters

Using a spoon, drop small amounts of the batter into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.
