In a food processor, fine grate potatoes (don't liquefy; leave some texture), strain to eliminate excess liquid. Don't overdo it; just let the water drain out. Fine grate onions, and mix in a large bowl with potatoes.

Note: If you don't have a food processor, you can grind the potatoes and onions in a meat grinder.

Add eggs, baking powder, ¾ cup corn oil, flour, salt, and pepper; mix well. Fold in matzo meal, making sure that everything is thoroughly blended.

Heat ½ cup corn oil in a deep skillet. Spoon batter (use a large kitchen spoon) into the pan to create pancakes about 3½ inches in diameter. Fry on low heat for 3 to 4 minutes until underside is deep golden brown, turn, and fry for another minute or 2. Drain on paper towels. Serve with applesauce and/or sour cream.
