Instructions
- Heat the oven to 400°F. Pour 1/4 cup oil into a 9x13-inch metal or glass baking pan and put it in the oven to get very hot.
- Grate the potatoes and onions on the fine shredding disk of a food processor, or by hand. Working in batches, squeeze out as much liquid as you can using a clean kitchen towel.
- In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, the remaining oil, the potato starch, salt and pepper. Add the potatoes and onions and mix well.
- Carefully take out the hot pan and spoon the mixture in. It should sizzle. Smooth the top.
- Bake 1 hour 15 minutes to 1 hour 30 minutes, until the top is deep golden brown and the edges are crisp.
- Let it rest 10 minutes, then cut into squares. Top with chives if you like.
Tips & make-ahead
