So for me I guess that's a compliment. So in honor of my new special friend I've decided to share this passover recipe for Matzah Brei. My mother made this all the time during passover when I was a kid. Its basically fried matzah. Its so simple. Its matzah that's been softened slightly in hot water mixed with eggs. It can be done fritata style or scrambled. I always. Make it fritata style. You can add other things to it if you want. Veggies..or anything else you can think of. There are dozens of recipes for matzah brei. You can leave it plain and eat it with apple sauce or jelly. It all depends on your taste. You can make it savory or sweet. I always make mine savory and eat it with apple sauce. My mother asked me what I wanted to eat for passover. So I made this ahead of time. While their eating their brisket..ill be warming this up in the oven. Good meatless eats
Here is my simple recipe. Hope you enjoy
8 peices of matzah. Broken into bite size pieces. Covered with water and soaked for five minutes. Or until soft and then drained.
6 eggs. Mixed really well
1/2 cup of milk. (Skim or whatever you have on hand is fine)
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
A tbs of canola oil
After the matzah has been soaked and drained combine the milk and eggs together. Pour eggs over the matzah and combine. Add salt and pepper. Heat up the oil in a large frying pan and add when its hot. I like to cover the first side while it cooks. I find it cooks faster and more even. Make sure its a medium to low flame. When the bottom is slightly golden its time to flip. I do this by putting a large plate on the matzah and holding it in place while I turn it over. I then slide it back into the pan so the other side cooks. When its golden your done. Best served warm for breakfast..or dinner or whenever else you want to have it.
Hope you're inspired this passover!!
