6 cups matzo farfel/ferfel; 1 box=6 cups
Grease a 9"x13" deep pan with 1/4 cup margarine. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Pour hot water over farfel, and drain immediately.
Using the electric mixer, beat eggs with vanilla and cinnamon, then add 3/4 cup of melted margarine and continue beating.
In a large bowl, fold in the pineapple and dried fruit if desired. Add matzo farfel and mix very well. Pour into prepared pan.
Bake in a 350°F oven for 45-60 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to set for a few minutes before cutting.
Poster's Notes:
Low Fat Substitutions:
There has been some discussion regarding stuffing a veal breast and I offer this wonderful stuffing that I used several years ago for Pesach. Everyone loved it. The recipe is old hence the suggestions at the bottom for lower fat content. As I recall this was plenty for a large veal breast. If you have leftover just bake it in a small casserole dish for the vegetarians in your group.
