Matzo Brei image

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

I thought this recipe was just okay. The matzo was a bit too dry for my taste, and the eggs were a little overcooked. I'll probably try a different recipe next time.

This recipe was a waste of time. The matzo was soggy and the eggs were rubbery. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

I'm not a big fan of matzo brei, but this recipe changed my mind. The matzo was crispy and flavorful, and the eggs were cooked perfectly. I'll definitely be making this again.

This is the best matzo brei recipe I've ever tried. The matzo is crispy on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside, and the eggs are perfectly cooked. I love the addition of the chives and dill, which add a nice pop of flavor.
