  • 3 tablespoons chicken or goose fat
  • 6 tablespoons hot water
  • 1 lemon
  • 4 cups matzo meal
  • 4 eggs, separated
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1½ cups fat for deep frying

    FOR THE FILLING
  • 1½ cups cherry jam
  • ½ cup chopped almonds
  • 2 tablespoons matzo meal

  • How To Cook:
    1. Mix fat, hot water, lemon juice and grated rind in a large bowl. Add matzo meal gradually to make a stiff, smooth batter.

    2. Beat egg yolks with sugar till creamy and stir in. Add salt to egg whites and beat stiff. Fold in beaten egg whites as soon as mixture is cool enough to handle.

    3. Add more water or lemon juice if the mixture seems too dry; it should be of a consistency that can be formed into balls after standing for 15-20 minutes.

    4. Combine the ingredients for the filling and let stand for 10 minutes before using.

    5. Form the batter into balls the size of medium apples; make a hole in the centre of each and insert a tablespoonful of filling.

    6. Mould the dough smoothly round the filling; flatten into a thick cake and fry in deep hot fat till lightly browned on both sides. Lift out and drain on paper.

    7. When all of the cakes are fried, arrange on a serving dish and cover with honey and slivered almonds, or sprinkle generously with sugar and cinnamon. Serve hot or cold.
