MATZA BRIE/FRIED MATZA

Steps:

• Break matza into bite size pieces and place in large bowl.
• If you like sweet matza brie as we do you can add the sugar and/or apple juice concentrate at his point.
• Slowly pour boiling water over the matza until matza starts to get soggy, but not soaked.
• About 1/2-1 cup of boiling water.
• I usually pour half, stir and wait a minute to see if it needs more.
• Beat eggs and add to matza mixture.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Heat frying pan with oil/butter/margarine and place entire mixture inside.
• You can cover and let it fry on a low heat and then try to flip whole or in sections when it has set.
• My family likes that I fry it liked scrambled eggs and it is separate and clumpy.
• Serve with sugar, jelly or sourcream.

FRIED MATZOH

Steps:

• Heat vegetable oil in a non-stick frying pan over low heat.
• Pour hot water into a bowl. Break matzoh sheets into small chunks and soak in hot water, about 2 minutes.
• Whisk eggs and 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt in a separate bowl.
• Strain matzoh and shake to remove excess water; stir matzoh into egg mixture.
• Pour the heated oil out of non-stick frying pan; place 1/2 tablespoon butter in hot pan.
• Pour matzoh and egg mixture into hot butter; cover and cook until a 'pancake' forms, about 10 minutes.
• Slide matzoh 'pancake' onto a plate.
• Place remaining 1/2 tablespoon butter in hot pan.
• Place a second plate over matzoh 'pancake' and flip plates over so the uncooked side is on the bottom.
• Lie matzoh 'pancake' in melted butter; cover pan and cook until bottom of pancake is browned, about 8 minutes. Remove from heat and season with kosher salt.

FRIED MATZOH

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs and add a dash of salt and pepper. In another bowl, soak the matzoh in warm water for about 30 seconds. Remove and set aside. In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the matzoh to the egg mixture, tossing gently to coat (making sure not to break up the matzoh too much), and add this to the hot skillet. Allow the matzoh to cook undisturbed for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the bottom begins to brown. Turn it over, stirring gently to cook through and allow the other side to brown (the matzoh will begin to break up at this point, which is fine). Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately.
