Mr Moo and I tried a new recipe this past weekend. I found it in Martha Stewart Living magazine and thought it would be a good filling breakfast before we went hiking.

 Skillet Matzo Brei with Cinnamon, Apple, and Raisins
5 matzos, broken into 2-inch pieces
2 large eggs
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 Granny Smith apple, peeled and diced
1/2 cup raisins
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons vegetable oil |
| 1. |
Place matzos in a bowl, and cover with water. Place a plate on surface to keep matzos submerged. Let stand for 5 minutes, and drain. Return to bowl.
|
| 2. |
Whisk eggs and salt together in a small bowl. Add to matzo. Add sugar, apple, raisins, cinnamon, and 1/2 cup oil. Gently stir until combined.
|
| 3. |
Heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Spread matzo mixture evenly in skillet, pressing firmly into pan. Cook, undisturbed, for 5 minutes. Carefully flip with a spatula, 1 piece at a time. (The mixture will break into 3 or 4 pieces.) Cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Spoon onto serving plates. Serve hot or warm with toppings if desired. |
When we served it up, it didn't look very appetizing, but it tasted good and it definitely was filling. There was quite a bit of the vegetable oil still coming out of it, which neither of us liked. If we make it again, we'll greatly reduce or even eliminate the oil that's mixed into the recipe and just use the little bit in the pan. I ate the last of it this afternoon.
