How to Make Matzoh Brei

This breakfast treat - really matzoh French toast - is for the Jewish holiday of Passover, which prohibits the eating of leavened bread. It's so tasty and easy, though, you might want to hoard some extra matzoh to have it all the time. Serves one hungry person. Does this Spark an idea?

Instructions

    • 1

      Beat the eggs together in a medium-sized mixing bowl, with salt and pepper.

    • 2

      Douse the matzoh with running water to soften it, then crumble into the bowl with the eggs. You can make the matzoh pieces large, small, or a mixture of both - it doesn't matter.

    • 3

      Melt a teaspoon or two of butter (if you're not eating meat with this meal) or warm a little vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat.

    • 4

      Pour the egg and matzoh mixture into the hot skillet.

    • 5

      Cook until the bottom is browned (a few minutes), then turn the whole thing at once and cook the other side. It's okay if it falls apart; just go with it.

    • 6

      Slide the matzoh brei out of the pan and onto a plate.

    • 7

      Serve with maple or pancake syrup (if it's kosher for Passover), or, alternatively, with a little hot pepper sauce.
