Ingredients
  

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 Tablespoon whole milk
  • 2 sheets matzah
  • 1 Tablespoon butter or margarine
  • 1/2 cup Pecorino Romano, finely grated
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
  • 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions
 

  • Crack 2 large eggs into a small bowl with 1 Tablespoon milk, and whisk until beaten. Crumble 2 sheets of matzah into the egg mixture, and allow to sit for 3-5 minutes, until soft.
  • Meanwhile, heat 1 Tablespoon butter or margarine in a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Pour the matzah-egg mixture into the pan, and while the eggs are still loose, sprinkle in 1/2 cup grated Pecorino Romano and 1/2 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper. Cook until the eggs are just set, 1-2 minutes, and season with 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt. Serve immediately.
