4 large eggs
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Generously grease a 9"x13" baking pan. Fit a food processor with the grating attachment.
Beat the eggs in a large bowl. Add the matzo meal, oil, salt, pepper, and baking powder and mix well.
Peel the potatoes and place them in water to cover in a large bowl. Cut each lengthwise into quarters or slivers no wider than the feeding tube of the food processor. The idea is to have the potatoes exposed to the air as little as possible to avoid having them turn dark.
Grate the potatoes with the onions (grating them together will help to keep the potatoes white) in the food processor. Squeeze with several changes of ink-free paper towels to drain as much liquid as possible. Add the grated potato-onion mixture to the egg mixture and combine thoroughly.
Pour the mixture into the prepared casserole and bake until crusty and brown, about 1 hour. Cut into squares and serve.
