I'm not rating this yet, I just made the dough (?) as instructed. Is there twice as much water in this recipe as is needed? My dough is not anywhere near being able to be made into a ball. It's more like watery oatmeal consistancy. The ingredient list doesn't even call for water but itis called for twice in the directions. Clarification please? UPDATE: I ended up adding enough additional matzo meal to make these workable into balls. About 2 more tbsp. I simmered them covered for 30 minutes and they came out fairly well. I think beating the egg till frothy helped a lot ( I put my eggs through my magic bullet) Lighter than the box recipe but basically the same. Thanks!
