Start by peeling and grating the potatoes using a box grater or food processor.

Grate the onion and mix it with the potatoes in a bowl.

Place the grated potatoes and onions in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much moisture as possible.

In a mixing bowl, combine the drained potato-onion mixture with the egg, flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper.

Heat a skillet over medium heat and add vegetable oil until shimmering.

Using a spoon, scoop the mixture into the skillet, flattening it gently with the back of the spoon.

Cook each pancake for about 4-5 minutes on one side until golden brown, then flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes on the other side.

Remove the pancakes from the skillet and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil.

Serve them hot with your favorite toppings.
