Try this delicious recipe I found on the Food Network:

BBQ with Bobby Flay
Episode:
BBQ Holiday

5 large russet potatoes, peeled
1 medium onion
4 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup matzo meal (I used flour)
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 cup canola oil, for frying

Grate potatoes and onion into a bowl or pulse in food processor. Drain any excess liquid, then add the eggs, matzo meal, salt and pepper.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Spoon the mixture into hot oil forming small pancakes. Cook until underside is golden, about 2 to 3 minutes. Flip pancakes and cook until other side is golden and potatoes are cooked through, about 2 minutes more. Serve hot with sour cream or applesauce.

A viewer, who may not be a professional cook, provided this recipe. The Food Network Kitchens chefs have not tested this recipe and therefore, we cannot make representation as to the results.

*I think traditionally these are served with a beef brisket, but since we aren't Jewish, I served them with an Apple-Bourbon Pork tenderloin (yikes) and dinner was great!
