Print This Recipe
Makes about 16 matzo balls
Ingredients:
- 6 eggs
- 1/4 cup vegetable or canola oil
- 2 tbs. water
- 1 1/2 cups matzo meal
- 1/2 tsp. baking powder
- Pinch of salt
Directions:
In a medium bowl add the eggs, oil and water and beat lightly with a fork. Mix together the matzo meal, baking powder and salt in a separate bowl. Add the dry ingredients to the egg mixture, mix well and then refrigerate for at least an hour.
Fill a large stockpot with watering add some salt to it and turn the heat to high. Once boiled, wet your hands and then form matzo balls (about 2 inches in diameter/the size of ping pong balls) and drop them one at a time into the boiling water. Once all the matzo balls are in the pot, lower the heat to medium low, cover with a lid and let cook for 30 minutes. Do Not Remove the Lid!
Once done, remove with a slotted spoon and add to your chicken soup when ready to serve!
