directions

Julienne potato and zucchini in a food processor. Pour processed vegetables into a large mixing bowl. Grate onions in processor and add to potato/zucchini mixture. Drain off excess liquid.

Add flour, baking powder, egg beaters, garlic, scallions, parsley, salt and pepper. Mix well. Gently fold in stiffly beaten egg whites. If mixture doesn't have enough body for frying, gently fold in additional flour.

To fry, heat 1/2 inch of oil in pan and drop latkes by spoonfuls. For flat latkes, gently press down with spatula. Fry until golden brown on both sides. Turn only once.

Drain well on paper towels. Serve immediately.

For Herb Yogurt Dip: Drain yogurt in a sieve over bowl in the refrigerator for 8 hours. Stir in minced herbs and minced garlic to taste.
