Adding zuchinni into plain potato latkes adds an extra boost of antioxidants such as Vitamin C , Vitamin A, and Manganese. Try this no fail latkes recipe from Yael at Culinary Kosher, a great resource for Kosher recipes! p.s. for rave reviews, try serving them hot off the pan. (but for a lower fat version make sure to blot them with a paper towel for a minute or two!) Marlene M.

1 pound/s Medium Zucchini
1 Large Baking Potato Peeled
1 Small Onion Peeled
1/2 cup/s Matza Meal
1 Large Egg
1 teaspoon/s Fresh Lemon Juice
1 1/2 teaspoon/s Salt
1/2 teaspoon/s Pepper

Half the zucchini crosswise. Cut out the seedy center and coarsely grate in food processor. Coarsely grate the potato and onion. Transfer the zucchini, potato and onion to a colander and squeeze dry. Transfer vegetables to a large bowl. Add the matza meal, egg (slightly beaten), lemon juice, salt and pepper and stir to combine. Heat 2 tbsp of oil until shimmering. Drop batter and flatten with a spoon. Cook over medium high until golden (about 1 1/2 minutes) flip and fry about another minute. Continue using up the batter adding oil as necessary.
