Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 tablespoons olive oil

  • Remove the pan from the heat and add the matzo meal, salt, and basil.
  • Stir well with a wooden spoon.

  • Place on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake 40-50 minutes or until top is golden brown.
  • Remove from baking sheet and let cool for 10 minutes on a wire rack.
  • Split the loaf in half horizontally.
  • Preheat the broiler.
  • Mince the remaining clove of garlic and mix with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil.
  • Spread the mixture over each half loaf.
  • Toast the ’bread’ under the broiler until just slightly golden.
  • Cut into slices and serve immediately.
  • NOTE: If you are using an electric mixer or doing the process by hand, chop the garlic finely.
  • Mix the eggs and half of the garlic into the matza-meal mixture with a fork or an electric mixer.
  • Remove dough from bowl, dip hands into matza cake meal and shape dough into an oval loaf.
  • Bake as above.
