Ingredients
 

  • 2 cups coarsely grated carrots
  • 1 cup coarsely grated zucchini
  • 1 egg white
  • 3 tablespoons flour
  • 2 tablespoons minced cilantro
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ cup olive or canola oil

Instructions
 

  • Mix grated carrots and zucchini in a bowl with the egg white. Add flour, cilantro, salt and black pepper and combine.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a sauté pan over medium heat. Add 1 spoonful of latke batter to pan and gently press down with a spatula until the latke is flat and about 2 to 2½ inches in diameter.
