📝 Instructions

7 steps
1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper or lightly greasing it.

2

In a medium saucepan, combine the water, vegetable oil, and salt. Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a boil, stirring occasionally.

3

Once the mixture reaches a boil, remove the saucepan from the heat and immediately stir in the matzo meal. Mix until the dough comes together in a thick, smooth consistency. Allow the mixture to cool for about 5–10 minutes.

4

After the dough has cooled slightly, add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. The dough will become sticky and smooth as you incorporate the eggs.

5

Using lightly greased hands or a spoon, form the dough into small balls (approximately the size of a golf ball) and place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between each roll.

6

Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 50 minutes, or until they are golden brown and puffed. Avoid opening the oven during the baking process to prevent deflation.

7

Once baked, remove the rolls from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.
