MATZO BREI
Steps:
- In a mixing bowl, break the matzo into 1-inch pieces. Bring the water to a boil and pour over the matzos. Quickly toss the matzo, then drain off any excess. In a bowl, beat the eggs with a fork. Mix the eggs, salt and pepper into the matzo. Over high heat, heat the butter and oil in a large saute pan. Add the matzo and fry until crisp. Flip over to fry the other side, breaking into pieces as it cooks. Serve with Maple syrup, or preserves.
CLASSIC MATZO BREI
In this matzo brei (rhymes with fry) recipe, the matzo sheets are browned in butter until crisp before being lightly scrambled with eggs. You make this either sweet or savory as you prefer. Add black pepper, plenty of salt and chives for a savory version, or Demerara sugar and maple syrup or honey if you would like something sweeter. It's a fine breakfast or brunch any time of the year, and especially during Passover.

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).

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.

Steps:
- Snap the ends off the asparagus where they break naturally. Peel the spears. Cut the asparagus in one-inch lengths.
- Place the asparagus in a steamer or in a pot of simmering water and steam or cook about three minutes, until they are just tender and still bright green. Drain the asparagus, if necessary, and refresh under cold running water. Dry them well.
- Heat a tablespoon of the butter or oil in a large nonstick skillet. Saute the onions over medium-low heat until they are golden, about six minutes. Remove the onions from the pan and mix them with the asparagus.
- Crumble the matzohs and soak them in a bowl of hot water about 30 seconds. Drain well and squeeze out as much water as possible. Mix the eggs and matzohs together in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in the onions and asparagus.
- Heat the remaining butter or oil in the skillet. Add the matzoh mixture and cook over medium-high heat several minutes, until the mixture sets on the bottom and around the edges. Cover the skillet with a large plate and, holding both plate and skillet together, flip them over so the matzoh brei is cooked side up on the plate. Slide it back into the pan and cook the second side. Cut it in wedges and serve with a sprinkling of grated cheese, if desired.

MATZO BREI WITH CARAMELIZED APPLES
This recipe is adapted from the restaurant Jane in downtown New York. There, the chef Glenn Harris offers a matzo brei that is an expanded version of his mother's. Mr. Harris's mother, in Brooklyn, made sweet matzo brei with honey or jelly, or matzo meal pancakes the size of silver dollars sprinkled with sugar. His version is much more elaborate, with cubes of caramelized apples, a vanilla-honey sauce and mascarpone.

Steps:
- Place honey in a small saucepan or microwavable bowl. Split vanilla bean lengthwise and use tip of knife to scrape seeds into honey. Add bean to honey as well. Gently warm honey over low heat or in microwave until it thins enough to easily pour, about 1 to 2 minutes. Keep warm or reheat before serving.
- Heat a sauté pan until very hot. Add 2 tablespoons butter, the apples and sugar. Fry, stirring occasionally, until apples are soft and caramelized, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a dish and keep warm.
- Place matzos in a large bowl and cover with warm water. Soak for 1 minute, then drain, pressing to remove excess water.
- In a large bowl, lightly beat eggs with salt. Break soaked matzo into large pieces, adding them to eggs, and toss well.
- Melt 6 tablespoons butter in a 10-inch nonstick pan over medium-low heat. Add matzo and eggs and cook, pressing down on top with a spatula, until crisp on bottom, about 8 minutes. Use a flexible metal spatula to loosen bottom and sides, then invert pan over a plate to flip matzo brei. Add remaining tablespoon butter to pan and swirl to coat bottom. Slide matzo brei back into pan and continue to cook until a crust has formed on bottom and it is cooked through, about 3 to 5 more minutes.
- Cut matzo brei into 6 pieces. Top each piece with apples and a spoonful of mascarpone, and serve drizzled with honey vanilla sauce.

MATZO BREI
Matzo brei (pronounced like fry) is one of the few dishes from my childhood that I'll never outgrow. The dampened shards of matzo mixed with beaten eggs and milk and then cooked in butter will never go out of style. I like to serve this matzo brei recipe in one big piece, but you can also scramble the mixture. -Lily Julow, Lawrenceville, Georgia

Steps:
- Put the matzah pieces in a large flat bowl or tray. Pour over 150ml of hot water and make sure all the matzah is covered. Set aside to absorb the water for about a minute, making sure they're evenly soaked. You want it a bit puffy but not disintegrating. Discard the excess water.
- Beat the eggs in a large bowl with the salt and add the matzah pieces. Stir to combine.
- Heat the butter in a 25cm frying pan over medium heat until it foams. At this point, you can either pour in all of the egg and matzah mixture, and spread it in a flat layer in the pan, or form into four smaller patties. Leave the matzah brei to set for about 4-5 mins - it should be golden on the base.
- Use a spatula to flip the individual matzah brei or smaller patties over, and cook them for another 4-5 mins until golden brown. Serve immediately with a sprinkle of salt or your choice of toppings.
