Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 large Russet potatoes
- 1 medium Yellow onion
- 3 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup Matzo meal
- 0.25 cup Vegetable oil
- 2 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish with a thin layer of vegetable oil or cooking spray.
Peel the potatoes and grate them using a box grater or a food processor with a shredder attachment. Place the grated potatoes in a large bowl of cold water to prevent discoloration.
Peel and finely dice the yellow onion. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, matzo meal, vegetable oil, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until well combined.
Drain the grated potatoes and use a clean kitchen towel to squeeze out as much excess moisture as possible. Add the potatoes and diced onion to the bowl with the egg mixture and stir until evenly coated.
Pour the potato mixture into the prepared casserole dish and spread it out evenly. Optionally, sprinkle paprika over the top for added color and flavor.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and crispy and the potatoes are cooked through.
Let the casserole cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing into squares and serving. Enjoy!
