Recipe Ingredients:
  • 2 1/4 cups matzo meal, (about)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 small onion, finely minced
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 1/4 cups water
  • 4 eggs
  • vegetable spray (or oil with
    which to grease a baking sheet)

Bring the oil and the water to a boil. In the meantime, mix well the meal and the salt and the onion. When the water boils, reduce the heat to low and add the meal mixture.

Beat well using a wooden spoon until the mixture pulls easily away from the sides of the pot. Remove the pot from the heat.

Add in the eggs, one at a time, beating well with the wooden spoon after each addition, until the is smooth. Portion the dough into a dozen balls, using either a wet ice cream scooper, meat baller or greased hands. Flatten the balls on the greased tray and press a hole into the center of each ball, forming the bagel shape. Place each about 2 inches apart on the tray and bake in a pre heated 350 degree Fahrenheit oven for about 40 minutes or until slightly crispy. Remove and cool. Store in an airtight container.
