MATZO BREI
Matzo brei (pronounced like fry) is one of the few dishes from my childhood that I'll never outgrow. The dampened shards of matzo mixed with beaten eggs and milk and then cooked in butter will never go out of style. I like to serve this matzo brei recipe in one big piece, but you can also scramble the mixture. -Lily Julow, Lawrenceville, Georgia

MOZZARELLA AND SPINACH MATZO BREI
Matzo brei is one of my all-time favorite foods! It is typically eaten on Passover since it is customary to avoid leavened bread. Matzo, a cracker-like unleavened bread, gets soft and chewy when it's soaked and scrambled with eggs in this traditional dish. Some people like sweet matzo brei sprinkled with cinnamon sugar, but I am on Team Savory Brei 4ever!

Steps:
- Heat the oil or butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the shallot and a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, fill a medium bowl with cold water and submerge the matzo. Soak for 1 minute, then drain and set aside. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream until homogenous. Stir in the matzo and set aside.
- Add the spinach to the shallots, one handful at a time, stirring until wilted. Add another pinch of salt. Pour in the egg mixture and cook until the bottom is set. Use a spatula to gently pull the bottom cooked parts to the sides of the skillet to make space for more of the mixture to cook. Add the cheese. Repeat this gentle pulling process until a majority of the mixture is set, 1 to 2 more times, then turn off the heat. The eggs should still be quite wet, but they'll continue to cook a bit in the skillet. Continue folding them gently, and once they've reached your desired firmness, remove them from the skillet and serve them immediately. Top with the hot sauce and ketchup.
MIXED BERRY MATZO BREI
Matzo brei is traditionally a Passover dish made with soaked matzo and eggs, but I like to eat it year-round. If you don't have matzo, you can use pita chips, crackers or bagel chips...you can really brei anything! I grew up eating my mom's savory matzo brei, but this is my fruity, cinnamon sugar version that hits the spot when you're craving a quick sweet breakfast situation.

Steps:
- For the spiced sugar: Combine the sugar, cinnamon, and cardamom in a small bowl and set aside.
- For the matzo brei: Fill a large mixing bowl with cold water. Break the matzo sheets into 1- to 2-inch pieces and add to the water, allowing to moisten for 45 seconds. Drain in a colander. In the now-empty mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, cream, vanilla, and salt. Fold the moistened matzo into the egg mixture to evenly coat.
- Heat the oil in a large nonstick pan or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Pour in the egg-matzo mixture and spread out evenly in the pan. Using a rubber spatula, gently fold the eggs to make a soft scramble, cooking until just set (the eggs should still be a little runny). Turn off the heat. Add the butter, then fold in 1 tablespoon of the spiced sugar and most of the compote, reserving some for serving.
- Transfer the matzo brei to a serving bowl or platter. Sprinkle with more spiced sugar to taste, and top with the remaining compote. Serve with whipped cream, a sprinkle of flakey salt and the remaining spiced sugar on the side.
- Combine the fruit, honey, lemon juice, salt and cinnamon stick in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil and cook, stirring occasionally, until the fruit is broken down but still chunky, about 10 minutes. Remove from the stove, then discard the cinnamon stick.
CARAMELIZED ONION AND MUSHROOM MATZO BREI
This recipe is adapted from the restaurant Jane in downtown New York. There, the chef Glenn Harris offers a matzo brei two ways, but not, he will quickly tell you, because he likes it both ways. He only makes the savory kind, with deliciously glossy, nearly black, fried onions, as a concession to his partner in the restaurant, Jeff Lefcourt. Needless to say, Mr. Lefcourt's grandmother made hers savory.
