Ingredients
  

  • 4large russet potatoes, peeled and grated
  • 1 large onion, finely chopped
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • ¼ cup matzo meal
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon paprika (optional, for color and flavor)
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil (for baking)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a baking dish with 1 tablespoon of olive oil to prevent sticking and add extra crispiness.
  • Prepare the potatoes: Grate the potatoes and place them in a clean kitchen towel. Squeeze out as much excess moisture as possible—this step is key to achieving a crispy texture.
  • Mix the ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the grated potatoes, chopped onion, beaten eggs, matzo meal, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Stir until everything is well incorporated.
  • Assemble the pie: Spread the potato mixture evenly into the greased baking dish. Drizzle the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil over the top to help create a golden crust.
  • Bake to perfection: Place the dish in the oven and bake for about 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and crispy. For an extra-crispy top, broil for an additional 2-3 minutes at the end.
