Ingredients

2 lbs medium zucchini

Spray Olive Oil

1 large onion, finely diced

1 whole eggs

6 egg whites

2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint

1/4 cup of matzo meal

Freshly Ground black pepper

Directions

Preheat oven to 375F. Lightly spray a 9 inch pie plate with non-stick spray.

Trim the zucchini and cut on the diagonal into 1/4 inch thick slices. Bring 2 quarts salted water to a rapid boil. Boil the zucchini until tender, about 2 minutes. Drain the zucchini in a colander, rinse, and drain again. Lay out 4 paper towels and put zucchini slices on top to dry. Then lay another 4 paper towels on top dry the tops. Place the dried zucchini in a big bowl.

Heat a large flying pan on medium-high heat and spray with olive oil. Add the onion and garlic and cook until soft but not browned. Add the onion mixture to the zucchini.

In a separate bowl, mix the eggs together, matzo meal, and herbs then add this to the zucchini mixture. Mix together well.

Add mixture to the pie plate and bake for 45 minutes.

Can someone help me i'm not sure what matzo meal is. my grocery clerk just looked at me funny ! help

Hi Jojo! thanks for your question. Matzah or Matzo is a Jewish cracker that's thin and crisp. Matzo doesn't use leavening agents like baking soda or yeast. If you your local grocery store has a ethnic isle, I would check there. Manischewitz is the brand I've always used. Here's their website: http://www.manischewitz.com/. If you still can't find it, you could use stale pita or maybe, saltines.

I'm having trouble finding Matzo Meal, and would prefer not to use stale pita, do you think the recipe would be okay without it?

juliagulia 2 years ago said:
Thanks for your comment Nycea! My guess is that if you made it without the Matzah meal the texture would definitely be impacted. In addition to contributing to the texture, Matzo also has a distinctive taste that lends itself to the overall flavor of the dish so that would be missed as well. However, I think it would still taste good though. If you decide to make it without it please post and let us know how it turns out.
