Time 45m

Yield 8 to 10 servings as a side dish

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 cups chopped spinach leaves
2 cups chopped parsley
3/4 cup chopped dill
6 scallions, with white and green portions chopped
1/4 cup chopped cilantro (optional)
1 tablespoon corn or other light vegetable oil
1/2 to 2/3 cup matzoh meal, or as needed
3 to 4 extra large eggs, or as needed
1 teaspoon salt, or to taste
1/2 teaspoon white pepper, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Combine first five ingredients in mixing bowl. Add oil and 1/2 cup matzoh meal. Stir in three eggs. Mix well with wooden spoon. Consistency should be fairly thick but slightly runny; mixture should drop in mass from tablespoon and just a little liquid should be visible. Add additional egg and/or matzoh meal, if needed, to attain that texture.
  • Spread thin film of oil over bottom and sides of baking dish that measures about 8 by 11 by 1 1/2 inches. Turn in egg mixture and smooth top with back of spoon.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 25 to 35 minutes, or until pie is completely set and slightly shrunken away from sides of dish.
  • Serve hot or cold.
