Perfect Matzo Brei (Passover) - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
3 matzos
4 eggs
salt
3 tablespoons Smart Balance light butter spread (butter is traditional)
Preparation
-
Break the matzos in half, then half again, and soak them in hot water for a couple of minutes.
Remove them and with your hands, squeeze out as much water as you can (kids love to do this!).
Beat the eggs lightly with salt in a mixing bowl, and add the matzo and mix.
Heat the butter in a heavy skillet and when it starts to turn brown, add the mixture.
Either leave the mixture to set on the bottom and then turn as you would a pancake (that's how I have it); or, stir with a wooden spoon as you would for scrambled eggs.
The matzo brei will be ready in about 5 minutes, depending on how well done you like your eggs (I like it more done and I need about 7-8minutes).
Serve immediately with jam and/or sour cream.
