List of Ingredients



• 1/2 cup olive oil, plus 3/4 cup, for frying
  
• 1 lb summer sqush, peeled and quartered
  
• 1 large onion, chopped fine
  
• 3 T grated Kasseri cheese
  
• 2 T butter, melted
  
• 4 cups panko or bread crumbs
  
• 2 eggs
  
• 2 scallions, sliced thin
  
• 1 tsp finely chopped thyme
  
• salt and freshly ground black pepper
  
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
  
• 1 T butter, for frying
  






Instructions



1. In a large saute pan, heat 1/2 cup olive oil on medium high heat. Sweat the squash and the onion together until very soft.
   
2. In a food processor, puree the squash mixture. Drain well to get out extra moisture. Put in a bowl with cheese, butter, bread crumbs, eggs, scallions, thyme, salt and pepper. Mix well. Let it stand for 1 hour, refrigerated.
   
3. Roll into about 2" balls. Lightly dredge in the flour and fry in the remaining olive oil and butter until golden brown.
