Passover Recipe: Bulotchky by Foodista's Mama

Passover is almost here! For my Jewish friends (or anyone who appreciates Maccabee culture), I reveal an old family recipe, which originates from the Ukraine and has been handed down to me from my mom by way of my great aunt Jolika.

This dish is of course Kosher for Passover and is a great substitute for biscuits. In fact, I think it's better! Enjoy it with some butter, jelly or even cream cheese. Bulotchky are the perfect bread substitute and they're not a fussy dish--very easy to make.

Bulotchky by Mira by way of Jolika

Ingredients: (makes about 8 rolls)
1 1/2 cup water
1/3 cup vegetable oil
Pinch of salt
2 cups of matzo meal
4 eggs

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

In a saucepan bring water, oil and salt to a boil. Put matzo meal in another bowl and pour boiling water with oil over dry matzo meal. Cover and let cool. When luke-warm, mix well and add the beaten eggs, but do not overdo it. Wet hands and form rolls roughly the size of a lemon. Drop onto cookie sheet. Bake at 400 degrees for 45 minutes or until golden brown. You can also use a muffin pan instead of forming the rolls yourself.

Happy Passover. Another recipe to follow tomorrow...
