Instructions
Use a box grater to shred the squash. Place the shredded squash on paper towels in a single layer for several minutes. Put the squash on more paper towels, wrap the towels around the squash, and squeeze to remove the water.
Put the squash in a large bowl and add the minced shallot, beaten egg, bread crumbs, flour, parmesan cheese, chives, Old Bay seasoning, and Tabasco sauce if using. Mix together with your hands or a spoon until evenly combined. Let this mixture sit for about 10 minutes.
Roll them into 8 balls and place them on a tray.
Preheat the Blackstone griddle to medium heat. Add some cooking oil and put the fritters on the griddle and press them flat. Cook 2 to 3 minutes per side.
Serve with sour cream or spicy mayo if desired.Note: I mixed together some mayo, Old Bay seasoning, and Tabasco sauce for dipping.
