Meme'S Potato Kugel

• 8 yellow potatoes, peeled and cut into eighths
• 1 1/4 teaspoons salt, divided
• 1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder
• 2 teaspoons vegetable oil, or as needed
• 1 1/2 large onions, finely chopped

• 4 eggs, beaten
• 2 tablespoons matzo meal
• 1 pinch salt
• 1 egg, beaten

1. Place potatoes and 1 teaspoon salt into a large pot and cover with water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium, stir in garlic powder, and simmer until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain; mash potatoes until no lumps remain.
2. Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir onion in hot oil until golden and tender, 5 to 10 minutes.
3. Stir onions, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper into mashed potatoes. Cool.
4. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x9-inch baking dish.
