chia, this cooked up nice and light and looked great. I enjoyed the taste. This is the first time I have used matzo meal and I liked it! Thanks for a nice light side dish!

These were very nice. Kind of like fried, flattened, oniony matza balls! I added extra onions and salt for flavour - made a nice, different Passover side dish. Thanks Chia.
