Melt the butter in a skillet, add the onion and parsley and sauté the vegetables over medium-heat for 3 minutes, Stirring often. Reduce the heat to low and add the remaining ingredients, except the egg whites, and cook about 3 minutes longer, stirring gently to keep the mixture light. Remove the skillet from the heat, allow the contents to cool a bit, then gently fold in the egg whites. Lightly shape the mixture into six cakes. Spray a nonstick skillet with cooking spray and heat it to medium-high. Sauté the cakes for 5 minutes on each side. Serve with tartar sauce or cocktail sauce. Serves 6
