Instructions:
Place rack in upper third of oven and preheat to 400 degrees.
In a food processor with the shredding disc or with a hand grater, grate the onion and transfer to a large colander. Grate potatoes and add to onion (you will need to do this in several batches). Drain well, squeezing out excess moisture.
In a very large bowl, whisk eggs, salt, melted margarine and matzo meal. Stir in potatoes until well-combined.
Place 2 tablespoons margarine in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Melt in oven and tilt dish to coat evenly. Transfer potatoes to baking pan, distributing evenly. Bake uncovered for 15 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 375. Bake for 45 more minutes, or until top is crisp. Cut into squares. -- Adapted from "Fast & Festive Meals for the Jewish Holidays: Complete Menus, Rituals,
