1/2 cup water
2 eggs
1/2 cup flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon paprika

In a saucepan, combine carrots with onion and water. Bring to a boil, simmer covered until carrots are tender. Drain liquid into a measuring cup. Measure 1/2 cups of that liquid into a small bowl. Separate eggs. Set aside the whites in another small bowl. Add the yolks to the reserved liquid and mix. Add flour, salt and paprika and beat until smooth.
Beat egg whites until stiff but not dry. At this point you should have 3 different mixtures.

(3) is the egg whites stiffly beaten
Fold 1 and 2 into 3. Add the parsley.
Heat some oil for frying in a griddle or skillet. Drop batter by heaping tablespoonful and fry until golden brown, both sides.
