Step 1

Spread out heavy duty paper towels on a clean counter top. Turn on cool water from the kitchen faucet and, one at a time, run each matzo under the water, wetting each side. Lay each wet matzo down on the paper towels, leaving about a 1/2-inch gap in between them. Then, place a soaking wet (don’t wring it!) paper towel on top of each matzo. Let the water absorb into the matzo until it’s easily bendable, like a noodle, about 20 minutes. Check it periodically – if it’s still not bending easily, wait a little while longer.

Step 2

Once the matzo is at the bendable stage, remove the wet paper towels and let the matzo dry a bit for about 10 minutes. Don’t rush this (I learned!) – if the matzo is too wet it will break. When it’s ready, the matzo will bend without breaking.

Step 3

In the meantime, while you’re waiting for the matzo, prepare the avocado spread. In a small food processor or blender, mix the avocado, lemon juice, salt and pepper until it’s a smooth and creamy spread. Give it a taste and season it with more salt or lemon juice as needed.

Step 4

Heat the panini press to medium-high heat. ***

Step 5

For each wrap: Brush a little olive oil on one side of a prepared matzo. Sprinkle it with salt, if desired. Carefully flip the matzo over to the other side and top it with brisket, onions and a few dollops of avocado spread. Fold in two opposite corners of the matzo to encase the fillings, leaving the ends open.

Step 6

Transfer the wraps, two at a time, to the panini press. Close the lid and grill them until they’re warmed through and the matzo is lightly crisped, 3 to 5 minutes.

Step 7

* You might opt to prepare more matzo, if this is your first time, in case a few break.

Step 8

** Alternatively, you can quickly slice and cook half an onion in a skillet with a few teaspoons of olive oil over medium heat. Season the onions with salt and pepper before adding them to the wrap.

Step 9

*** No panini press? You can always bake these wraps in an oven or toaster oven at 350°F until they’re hot and crisped, 5 to 10 minutes.
