Ingredients

  • 2 sheets Matzah
  • 3 Large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons Whole milk (or water)
  • 0.5 teaspoons Salt
  • 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
  • 1 tablespoon Chopped parsley (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Break the matzah sheets into smaller bite-sized pieces (about 1-2 inches wide) and place them in a medium mixing bowl.

Step 2

Run warm tap water over the matzah pieces and let them soak for about 30 seconds. Drain immediately to prevent over-soaking, which can make them too soggy.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk (or water), salt, and black pepper until well combined and slightly frothy.

Step 4

Gently fold the soaked matzah pieces into the egg mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated.

Step 5

Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and melt the butter, swirling it around to coat the pan evenly.

Step 6

Pour the matzah and egg mixture into the skillet. Spread it out evenly with a spatula, but avoid pressing it down too hard.

Step 7

Cook for 2-3 minutes on one side until the bottom is golden brown and the mixture begins to set.

Step 8

Carefully flip the omelette using a spatula or by cutting it in halves for easier flipping. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until fully set and golden on both sides.

Step 9

Transfer the omelette to a serving plate, garnish with chopped parsley if desired, and serve warm.
