Best 9 Matzo Brei With Creamed Spinach And Crispy Onions Recipes

MATZO BREI WITH CREAMED SPINACH AND CRISPY ONIONS

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a medium skillet over high heat until hot.
• Reduce the heat to medium; add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 8-10 minutes.
• Season with salt and pepper, to taste, and transfer to a bowl with a slotted spoon.
• Reserve the skillet and oil in which the onions were cooked.
• Meanwhile squeeze the spinach well, a handful at a time to remove all the water and set aside.
• Break up the matzos slightly and soak them in a bowl of cold water for 1-3 minutes; don't let them get too soggy!
• Drain the matzos and combine them with the eggs, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
• Reheat the oil remaining in the reserved skillet with the butter over medium-high heat until hot.
• Add the matzo mixture and cook, stirring constantly, until eggs are scrambled and the matzo has begun to crisp, about 5 minutes.
• Stir in the spinach and cheese and cook until just heated through.
• Top each portion with a mound of the onions.

MATZO BREI

Steps:

• For the caramelized onions: Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and toss to coat with the oil. Cover and slowly cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are golden, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• For the matzo brei: Heat the oil in a saute pan over medium heat. Add the salami and fry for 3 minutes. Soak the matzo sheets in water for 15 seconds, crumble them with your fingers and add them to the salami. Add the caramelized onions and toss with the salami and matzo. Cook for an additional 3 minutes. Add the beaten eggs and cook until the eggs are cooked through, about 5 minutes.
• Plate with a side of maple syrup if desired.

CREAMED SPINACH WITH CRISPY CHEESE

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a medium pot over medium heat. Add the onion and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook until the onion is soft and translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for about a minute longer. Stir in the flour until combined and cook for 2 minutes to cook out the flour taste. Add the heavy cream and cook, stirring, until the sauce is thick and there are no lumps, about 5 minutes.
• Add the spinach, breaking up any frozen chunks with the back of a wooden spoon. Stir to combine with the creamy mixture until uniformly incorporated. Taste and season with salt. Cook until the spinach is heated through and mixture begins to bubble, about 3 minutes. Add the Cheddar, lemon juice and hot sauce. Season with salt and pepper. Turn to the lowest setting.
• Heat a large nonstick pan over medium-high heat and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Make 2-tablespoon mounds of Parmesan in the pan, leaving 3 inches between each (work in batches if your pan isn't large enough). Allow the Parmesan to melt and bubble until it starts to brown around the edges. Use an offset spatula to carefully lift each cheese crisp to the lined baking sheet. Allow to cool for 2 minutes. Crumble or serve whole on top of the creamed spinach.

MATZO BREI

Steps:

• Beat eggs lightly in small bowl. Add onion powder, salt and pepper; mix well.
• Place matzo in shallow dish. Pour egg mixture over matzo; let stand until egg mixture is evenly soaked into matzo.
• Heat oil in large skillet on medium heat. Add single layer of the matzo mixture; cook 2-1/2 min. on each side or until golden brown on both sides. Repeat with the remaining matzo mixture.

MATZO BREI

Steps:

• Break 2 sheets of matzo into 1/2" pieces; place in a medium bowl. Cover with very hot tap water. Let stand for about 30 seconds, then drain. Beat 2 large eggs in another medium bowl; season with salt and pepper. Add drained matzo; mix until combined and a wet batter forms. Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Spoon scant 1/4-cupfuls of batter into skillet, making 4 pancakes. Fry, turning once, until golden and just cooked through, about 1 minute per side. Serve with jam, syrup, or whatever the hell you'd like. These rock.

CLASSIC MATZO BREI

Steps:

• Under cool running water, rinse matzo sheets until they are quite wet. Set it aside and let sit to soften while you prepare the pan.
• Place a large, preferably nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and add butter. Once it melts and the foam subsides, break matzo sheets into bite-size pieces and add to pan. Sauté matzo in butter until it browns all over, about 2 minutes.
• Add eggs, salt and pepper (if you're making the dish savory) to pan and scramble the mixture until it is just set but still light and fluffy, about 1 minute. Sprinkle with sugar (if you're making it sweet) and toss well.
• Serve matzo brei sprinkled with salt and topped with chives (savory), or with salt, additional sugar and maple syrup (sweet).

MATZO BREI OR FRIED MATZO

Steps:

• Beat the eggs (like you're about to make scrambled eggs) in a medium-size bowl, and set aside.
• Wet each matzo sheet under warm running water, until thoroughly wet and easy to break apart. Shake the excess water from the matzo.
• Break the matzo sheets into pieces in the bowl with the beaten eggs, until all the matzo is broken up.
• Spray a pan with cooking spray and heat it on the stovetop on medium-high heat.
• Mix the egg and matzo together, so the egg coats the matzo, and pour into the heated pan.
• Cook as you are cooking scrambled eggs, until desired doneness.
• Once the food is plated, sprinkle lightly with salt, to taste.
