Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 250ºF.
  2. Put a kettle of water (about 3 1/2 quarts) on high heat to boil.
  3. Meanwhile, melt 1 tablespoon margarine in a 12-inch skillet on low heat.
  4. Add onions, and saute over medium-high heat until soft and golden brown, stirring frequently to prevent burning, about 15 minutes.
  5. Add mushrooms, and continue cooking until soft, 3 to 4 minutes.
  6. Add rosemary, thyme, parsley, salt, and pepper, and stir to combine.
  7. Remove from heat, and set aside to cool slightly.
  8. Break eggs into a large bowl, and beat lightly.
  9. Add mushroom mixture, stirring well to combine.
  10. Make batter:
  11. Break matzos into 1 1/2- to 2-inch pieces directly into a colander, and pour the boiling water over them.
  12. Let matzo stand until softened, about 2 to 3 minutes, and add to the mushroom-egg mixture, adjusting the seasoning with salt and pepper, if necessary.
  13. Let stand for 5 minutes.
  14. Melt remaining tablespoon margarine in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat.
  15. Pour 1/4 cup of batter into pan to form a 3-inch pancake, lightly pressing with a spatula to make pancake even.
  16. Repeat, cooking 3 pancakes per batch.
  17. Cook pancakes until nicely browned, about 2 minutes.
  18. Turn and cook the other side about 2 minutes more.
  19. Transfer to oven to keep warm and repeat process until all the batter is used up, making about 28 pancakes.
