Matza Spinach Pie
2 packages frozen chopped spinach (10 ounces
each)
3 eggs, separated
1 1/2 cups mashed potatoes
3/4 cup grated cheddar cheese
salt and white pepper to taste
4-5 matzahs (enough to cover bottom of pan and filling)
warm water
2 tablespoons oil
Thaw and drain spinach well. In medium sized
bowl, beat 1 egg well; add half mashed potatoes, 1/2 cup of grated
cheese, and chopped spinach. Combine well. Season with salt and
pepper.
Soak matzas in shallow pan of warm water for about 3 minutes. Place
matzas between 2 towels to absorb excess water.
Grease 9 x 9- inch baking pan or pie plate with 1 tablespoon oil.
Heat the pan in preheated 350 degree Fahrenheit oven. Carefully line
bottom an sides of hot pan with some of the matzah. Spread spinach
filling evenly over the matzah. Cover the filling with remaining
matzah. In small bowl, beat the remaining 2 eggs; add the remaining
potatoes, cheese and oil. Blend well. Spread this over matza. Score
top with a fork. Bake for 1 hour or until top is lightly browned. |
