Matzo Brie
The following serves 3-4 people:

Break up 4 sheets plain matzo into a large bowl. (Pieces should be small, but the matzo should not be in crumbs. Pieces should range from the size of a large corn flake to a small snack cracker.) Boil the kettle. Pour boiling water over the matzo until it is saturated, but there should not be any water hanging around in the bowl (if there is, just pour it out.) Add two eggs and salt and pepper to taste.

Add a thin layer of vegtable oil (you can also use butter for better taste) to a heavy medium-sized skillet. Heat until medium-hot. Pour matzo mixture into skillet and spread around like a thick omelet. Brown for 4-5 minutes; then turn. Brown other side for a few minutes.

Top with sour cream or fruit preserves and enjoy.
