Fried Squash

Dad grilled some pork sirloins last night and we needed a side dish.  I had some squash but wanted something different than my usual method of fixing squash (which is roasting it in the oven.)  Growing up my Mom always battered squash in flour dipped in egg and fried it in shortening or vegetable oil.  So I decided to Paleo-tize that recipe. 

Fried Squash
2 squash - sliced
1 egg
Almond Milk
Coconut Flour
Almond Flour
Coconut Oil

I beat my egg and mixed it with a little almond milk in a bowl for my wet mix.  Then in a separate bowl I mixed half coconut flour and half almond flour for my dry mix.  I heated some coconut oil in a skillet (just enough to cover the bottom).  I dipped my sliced squash in the wet mix, then dipped in dry mix and fried in the pan.  I flipped the squash after the first side had browned.  I had to wash my pan and start with fresh oil for each new batch-2 squash took me 3 batches to fry.  It was so yummy!


Here's a pic after we ate half of it!
