Introduction
To keep it healthy, you probably ought to figure one medium potato per person. However, you may crave more. Just a warning. I use red potatoes and leave the skin on.

Ingredients
-
1 potato per person
For each potato:
about 1/5 onion
1 tsp parsley
1/2 egg white (you can use whole eggs if you want: 1 per 5 potatoes (nutritional info uses egg whites))
olive oil
Directions
Grate potato with a fine grate, the hand-held kind works great (so to speak).
Grate onion or chop very small.
Put onion and potato in strainer and use your hands to press out excess fluid. The more fluid you get out, the better the latkes.
Put in bowl, mix in parsley and egg. Shape into meatballs about 1.5-2 inches diameter.
Put a thin film of olive oil (no more than that--maybe a Tbsp. Canola's okay too) in a skillet. Put latke balls into skillet and flatten. Brown one side, then the other. Serve hot.
Traditionally eaten with sour cream and applesauce. (Not included in nutritional info).
Makes about 5 latkes per potato (a serving is one potato).
