Ingredients

2 cups Manischewitz® Matzo Farfel
1 cup Manischewitz® Vegetable Broth
1 small onion, chopped
1 -2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil plus more for serving
¼ pound Greek-style feta, crumbled
¼ cup fresh basil, in a chiffonade
1/2 cup grape tomatoes, sliced in half
Juice of 1 large lemon
Fresh cracked black pepper

Matzo Farfel with Feta and Basil

Directions

“Chiffonade” is a French term which means “rags.”
To make a chiffonade of basil:
Stack the leaves and roll them into a tight cigar shape.
Slice crosswise into thin strips.
Fluff the strips to separate them.

Instructions:
In a pan over high heat, sauté onion in olive oil until slightly browned, about 5 minutes.
Reduce heat to medium and add Manischewitz® Matzo Farfel.
Sauté the farfel until it is coated with oil and a bit toasty.
Pour in Manischewitz® Vegetable Broth and continue to cook, stirring occasionally until water is absorbed.
After about 5 minutes the farfel will retain a bit of a bite, but you can cook it longer if you prefer a softer consistency.
Transfer farfel to a large bowl and toss with feta, basil, tomatoes and lemon juice.
Drizzle with additional olive oil and finish with fresh cracked black pepper just before serving.
