This is one of my dad's fondest childhood memories from Passover. As you may know, Passover is the ultimate gluten-free holiday. In Israel, this means that during that week, and I mean EVERYTHING, gets a gluten-free version. Growing up around Tel Aviv, my dad used to frequent the local stadium to watch soccer matches. Typically, the vendors outside would sell hotdogs in buns, but during Passover, they had a unique twist: rolling the hotdogs in matzah and frying them to perfection upon order. Ever since my dad introduced it to us as kids, we've been asking for it every single year. It's an incredible snack during the holiday, and honestly, all year long.

Ingredients

6 matzahs

6 hot dogs

1 egg

A pinch of salt

Water

Frying oil

Directions

Step 1

Start by wetting the matzahs under running water for about 30 seconds. Then, gently shake off any excess water, place on a clean towel and cover with another towel. Let them soften for approximately 15 minutes in between the towels.

Step 2

Then- working on one matzah at a time, trim the sides, so the width of the matzah is a little shorter than the hotdog.

Step 3

Wrap the matzah around the hotdog.

This is an excellent idea! We have tried it a couple of times and struggled to get the matzah the right level of 'moist' to roll! It was either slightly too dry, or slightly too wet. Is it better to soak it then leave to rest, or just rinse and leave to rest? Definitely want to keep trying until we get it right 😊
