Step-By-Step Instructions:

Boil the diced broccoli in a small amount of water for 5 minutes, then drain thoroughly.
Break eggs into a medium bowl and beat. Add the flour and mix well. Add the broccoli and onion and stir into the flour/egg mixture until well mixed.
Heat olive oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Drop the mixture by spoonfuls into the hot oil, making 4 equal portions. Flatten with a spatula, and cook until golden brown on both sides (about 3-4 minutes per side).
Remove the latkes from the pan and drain on a paper towel to soak up extra oil. Serve hot.
