    Highly recommend using less-to-no matzo meal; absolutely no eggs... Served as side dish with pork chops is an oxymoron :}

    Good.......but no Jewish woman making these would ever add flour if needed. Matzo Meal is the addition of choice. The onion is always grated never diced. Served with apple sauce, these are addicting!
