1 pound rhubarb, thinly sliced
1/2 cup seedless raisins
1/2 cup seedless dried cherries, chopped
1 cup sugar
5 matzos, soaked in warm water
8-1/3 eggs

Preheat oven to 350°F.

Put rhubarb, 1/2 cup sugar, raisins, and cherries in a dry pot. Stirring constantly over low heat, cook until rhubarb is soft and most of the liquid from fruit evaporated.

Soak matzo until soft. Squeeze dry.

Beat eggs. Add remaining sugar, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cardamom. Continue beating until well blended.

Stir crumbled matzos, almonds, apples, rind, and rhubarb mixture into egg mixture.
