RE: JODY Re: Help w/ Veggie Latke

[Guest guest]

Jody,

Well, yes, sort of. I didn't try to peel it because that looked impossible.

I just cut it in half and tried to scrape out the meat. The recipe does not

say to cook it first. I've pasted the recipe below, as written in the post.

It doesn't say anything about precooking any of the ingredients.

1 large acorn squash, peeled and grated

1 medium Gala apple, peeled and grated

1 small onion, chopped into small pieces

2 eggs

Salt /pepper

oil for frying

Mix all ingredients very well. Heat oil in frying pan

over a medium flame. Place a spoonfull of mixture in

hot oil. Fry until golden on both sides.

The main question, though, was how to keep them from falling apart during

cooking (when you turn them). But thanks for the cooking tip.

Thanks,

Diane

Also, I had a lot of trouble with the Acorn squash (I'd never tried it

before). I cut it in half and tried to scrape out the 'meat.' It

took a long time and I wasted a lot.

I am a bit confused. Why were you trying to peel it before you cooked it?
