Peel and grate the potatoes into a large bowl.

Finely chop the onion and add it to the grated potatoes.

Mix in the eggs, flour, and baking powder until well combined.

Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste.

Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat until shimmering.

Scoop spoonfuls of the potato mixture into the skillet, flattening them slightly.

Cook until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes on each side.

Transfer cooked pancakes to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).

Arrange the pancakes in a baking dish and sprinkle with cheese and chopped smoked sausage.

Dot with butter and bake for 20-25 minutes until heated through and cheese is melted.

Serve warm, garnished with sour cream and fresh dill.
