Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 cups Matzah meal
- 1 teaspoon Oil or cooking spray
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, water, and salt until well combined and slightly frothy.
Gradually stir in the matzah meal, mixing just until a smooth batter forms. The consistency should be similar to a thin pancake batter. If the batter is too thick, add another tablespoon of water. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes.
Lightly grease a large nonstick skillet with oil or cooking spray and place it over medium heat.
Pour a small amount of batter (about 2-3 tablespoons) into the skillet and tilt the pan to spread it into a thin, even layer, similar to making a crepe.
Cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the edges begin to lift and the bottom is lightly golden. Flip gently and cook the other side for another 30 seconds to 1 minute.
Transfer the cooked noodle crepe to a cutting board and repeat with the remaining batter, re-greasing the pan as needed.
Once all the crepes have cooled slightly, stack them on top of one another. Using a sharp knife, roll the stack tightly into a cylinder and slice it crosswise into thin strips to create noodle-like pieces.
Gently separate the strips and serve as a topping for soup or as a side dish. Enjoy your homemade Passover egg noodles!
