3. Heat 1/4-inch of oil in a large heavy skillet and heat over moderate heat.
4. Working in batches, drop heaping tablespoons of the squash mixture into the hot oil, flattening slightly with the back of the spoon.
5. Fry until the latkes are golden-brown and crisp on both sides, carefully flipping halfway through, 6 to 8 minutes.
6. Using a slotted spoon, remove the latkes from the oil and drain on a paper towellined rack.
