How to Make Matzoh Brei 5 W W Pts

  1. Preheat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat.
  2. Place 6 pieces of matzah in a large bowl and run warm water over each piece until softened but not soggy (about 5 seconds per piece).
  3. Break each softened matzah piece into 2-inch squares.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1 tablespoon milk (optional, for extra fluffiness), and a pinch of salt and pepper.
  5. Add the matzah pieces to the egg mixture and gently toss to coat completely.
  6. Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in the preheated skillet.
  7. Add the matzah mixture to the skillet and cook, gently stirring occasionally, until golden brown and crispy, approximately 5-7 minutes.
  8. Serve immediately. Garnish with a sprinkle of fresh herbs (like chives or dill) or a dollop of sour cream or applesauce (optional).
