Great No-Grate Potato Pancakes - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    30 ounces frozen potatoes (country style shredded potatoes, only potatoes nothing else, 0 fat)
    1 small onion, peeled and finely chopped
    2 eggs, slightly beaten
    1/2 cup flour
    1 teaspoon baking powder
    1 1/4 teaspoons salt
    vegetable oil (for frying)
Preparation
    Pour potatoes into large bowl and thaw about 1 hour.
    While still very cold add onion and egg's, stir in eggs until blended.
    Stir in baking powder, flour and salt.
    Heat some oil in frying pan over medium heat.
    Shape 1/2 cup in hand and place in oil, pack and shape gently with spatula.
    Cook 15 minutes on each side. I like to cook mine slowly to ensure potatoes are cooked and evenly browned. The less they are moved the less they tend to fall apart. Check them gently every 5 minutes When browned evenly carefully flip them, repack with spatula and cook 15 minutes more.
    Drain on paper towel 1 minute.
    Transfer to warm serving dish (I like to keep mine in the oven set at 200\u00b0F).
    Do several at a time, don't overcrowd, you will need to do them in batches.
    Serve with sour cream, applesauce or gravy.
