Thai Squash Fritters

Thai Squash Fritters are delicious appetizers made using yellow squash and thai red curry paste. These are perfect as holiday appetizers. Here is how to make it.

Holiday season is here and I’m going to host a number of parties at home. A good appetizer can go a long way to make your party a success. This time I’ve created a fusion recipe perfect for the holiday parties.

I used fresh & tempting Squash from Divine Flavor to make this colorful and delicious recipe. Thai Squash Fritters can be made within minutes and are perfectly served along with some sour cream or any dip for that matter.

Thai Squash Fritters are crispy from outside and soft from inside with bold Thai flavors. The Thai flavor comes from the Thai Red Curry paste which I bought from the super market. Its just the perfect recipe for your family and friends.

There are various types of squash and pumpkins available in the market, for this recipe I used the yellow squash which is generally available throughout the year in your local vegetable and fruit shop.

In the past I’ve also used Butternut Squash to make Thai Style Butternut Squash Soup, a hot soup perfect for the winter weather and Penne Pasta with roasted butternut squash in a creamy Bechamel sauce which can be served anytime of the year.

Did you know there are more than ten varieties of squash grown all over the world? The other family of squash include Acorn Squash, Banana Squash, Buttercup Squash, Carnival Squash, Delicata Squash, Hubbard Squash, Kabocha Squash and probably a few more.

I look forward to include all these varieties in my upcoming recipes, however for now let’s see this Yellow Squash Recipe.
