Matzoh Balls

I discovered a place to buy matzoh meal in the small, not-very-Jewish city where I live, so I was able to make a childhood favourite. This time, of course, it was without the chicken. Even when I became a vegetarian, my grandma still kept making this soup with chicken and she’d tell me to just pick it out if I didn’t want to eat it!

 

Ingredients:

2 eggs

½ cup matzoh meal

2 tbsp vegetable oil

2 tbsp vegetable stock or tonic water or regular water

1 tsp salt

½ tsp black pepper, optional

 

Instructions:

1. Whisk the eggs lightly.

2. Mix all the ingredients together.

3. Chill for 10 minutes.

4. Shape into balls and add to boiling water or soup. Cook for 10-30 minutes, depending on size.
