Squash medallions

Season the squash. Empty the flour into a shallow dish, place the egg and cheese in two separate deep dishes. Toss the squash in the flour and dust off the excess. Dip in the egg and then in the cheese, press firmly on the crumb coating, place on a baking tray lined with baking paper.
