Matzoh Brie (Fried Matzoh)
- 8 plain matzoh boards
- 5 large eggs
- 12 cup sour cream
- 1 pinch salt (to taste)
- 4 tablespoons butter (or 3 tablespoons of butter and 1 tablespoon of corn oil)
- In a large bowl, break the matzoh boards into large pieces.
- Fill the bowl with very warm water and immediately drain all the water out.
- The matzoh should be barely dampened.
- In another bowl, beat the eggs, the sour cream, and a little salt together.
- Stir this mixture gently into the matzohs, coating all the broken crackers completely without breaking them into lots of tiny pieces.
- In a large skillet, melt the butter (or butter and corn oil) over medium heat.
- Pour the matzoh/egg mixture into the pan, spreading it out evenly.
- When the bottom begins to brown, in about 5 minutes, begin flipping it over, It will break into pieces as you flip the matzoh.
- (You can try to turn it pancake-style, but I prefer to break up the mixture, so that there are more browned, crunchy edges -- I love those!).
- Continue cooking, stirring, and flipping until all the pieces of matzoh are cooked through.
- Remove from heat and serve immediately with some more sour cream and applesauce on the side, if desired.
- (Some people even like maple syrup on the fried matzoh -- not me, but whatever you like!
- ).
- FOR A MORE SAVORY VERSION: Chop up a small onion and cook until softened in the butter before adding the matzoh/egg mixture, to which you can add a little ground black pepper.
