Instructions
- Cook sliced white and pale green scallion in 2 teaspoons oil in a saucepan over medium heat until golden brown.
- Remove from heat and stir in scallion greens.
- Whisk eggs and water in a bowl.
- Stir in matzo meal, salt, pepper and scallion mixture until well combined.
- Heat 1/2 cup oil in a 12 inch nonstick skillet over medium heat until hot (if using a smaller pan like me, use less oil).

- Cook pancakes for 2 minutes until undersides and golden.
- Flip, and cook for another 1 1/2 minutes until done.
- Transfer finished pancakes to a paper towel and repeat, adding more oil as needed.

Notes
You can reheat pancakes on a baking sheet for 10 minutes in a 350 degree oven.
