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

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).

Steps:
- Add eggs to a bowl and scramble with a whisk along with 1 tbsp milk or water until the eggs are nice and fluffy.Run a sheet of matzo under running hot water for 20-60 seconds until it just begins to soften. The amount of time you'll need to keep it under the water depends on the type of matzo you're using. Let it get soft, but don't let it turn mushy! Shake off the excess water and reserve the matzo.
- Melt a tablespoon of butter in a skillet or frying pan over medium heat.
- Break the matzo into small pieces and place them in the skillet. Sauté the matzo pieces over medium heat for about a minute, until they are evenly coated with butter.
- Pour the scrambled egg mixture over the matzo pieces. Stir the eggs with a spatula until they are well combined with the matzo. Cook the eggs for about 2 minutes over medium, flipping and stirring continuously-don't let the eggs sit, or they will overcook. You want the eggs to be cooked soft- not runny, but just barely cooked. Overcooked or browned eggs ruin the flavor entirely. As you are cooking, sprinkle in salt and pepper to taste. This would also be the time to add sugar, if you want a sweeter matzo brei.
- Serve the matzo brei immediately with a small side of applesauce and sour cream, or maple syrup if you like.

MIXED BERRY MATZO BREI
Matzo brei is traditionally a Passover dish made with soaked matzo and eggs, but I like to eat it year-round. If you don't have matzo, you can use pita chips, crackers or bagel chips...you can really brei anything! I grew up eating my mom's savory matzo brei, but this is my fruity, cinnamon sugar version that hits the spot when you're craving a quick sweet breakfast situation.

Steps:
- For the spiced sugar: Combine the sugar, cinnamon, and cardamom in a small bowl and set aside.
- For the matzo brei: Fill a large mixing bowl with cold water. Break the matzo sheets into 1- to 2-inch pieces and add to the water, allowing to moisten for 45 seconds. Drain in a colander. In the now-empty mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, cream, vanilla, and salt. Fold the moistened matzo into the egg mixture to evenly coat.
- Heat the oil in a large nonstick pan or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Pour in the egg-matzo mixture and spread out evenly in the pan. Using a rubber spatula, gently fold the eggs to make a soft scramble, cooking until just set (the eggs should still be a little runny). Turn off the heat. Add the butter, then fold in 1 tablespoon of the spiced sugar and most of the compote, reserving some for serving.
- Transfer the matzo brei to a serving bowl or platter. Sprinkle with more spiced sugar to taste, and top with the remaining compote. Serve with whipped cream, a sprinkle of flakey salt and the remaining spiced sugar on the side.
- Combine the fruit, honey, lemon juice, salt and cinnamon stick in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil and cook, stirring occasionally, until the fruit is broken down but still chunky, about 10 minutes. Remove from the stove, then discard the cinnamon stick.

Flip over to fry the other side, breaking into pieces as it cooks. Serve with Maple syrup, or preserves.

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.

RUTH REICHL'S MATZO BREI
Elizabeth Barbone of Troy, New York, writes: "I read Ruth Reichl's 'Letter from the Editor' (April 2004), in which she states that 'matzo brei is one of life's perfect foods,' with great interest. However, no recipe for matzo brei appears. Is there any chance of Gourmet publishing a recipe for this 'perfect' food? I would love to try it."
