Today I share a very simple and tasty recipe. You may serve as a side dish to many dishes, but a Dominican would probably think of fried salami, longaniza, sausage, etc.

Directions for preparing fried squash

Peel and cut your squash in cubes.

Mash some garlic. Fill a bowl with water and add some salt and the garlic. Put the water in a pot and let it boil. When boiling add the squash cubes and let it boil for 5 minutes. It it’s very soft squash you might have to take out earlier. You don’t want it to soft before frying.

In hot oil, but not too hot (it should not be smoking hot) fry until hard on the outside. Take out and sprinkle red and black pepper.

Enjoy!
