1. Prepare the Potatoes
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Grease a baking pan with olive oil or line it with parchment paper.
- Peel and grate the potatoes, then place them on a clean kitchen towel. Squeeze out as much moisture as possible to ensure a crispy texture.
2. Make the Potato Mixture
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated potatoes, eggs, and flour.
- Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder (if using). Mix until well combined.
- Spread the potato mixture evenly into the prepared baking pan, pressing it down firmly with a spatula to create a compact layer.
3. Add the Cheese
- Sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly over the top of the potato mixture.
4. Bake
- Place the baking pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the top is golden and the edges are crispy.
5. Slice and Serve
- Remove from the oven and let cool slightly.
- Cut into squares and serve warm.
