Squash Puppies.

I got this one from my hometown recently. It's very good. Just add the buttermilk LAST so that the batter doesn't get too thin. You may not need all of it.

Squash Puppies

5 medium yellow squash
1/2 tsp. salt
1 egg, beaten
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 medium onion, finely chopped (or grated)
3/4 cup self-rising corn meal mix
1/4 cup all-purpose flour

Slice the squash, almost cover with water, add salt, and cook over medium heat for about 20 minutes until just tender. Drain well and mash. Combine all other ingredients except buttermilk. Add squash, then add buttermilk to reach proper consistency. Drop spoonfuls into about an inch of hot oil and fry until brown.
