The crispiness taste and sound mixed with the flavours and scents of this dish, take me back to the age I went to primary school.

My Mom makes the vegetarian version every year during Easter/Passover time and we and we used to gather around her, grabbing the ones that just came of the frying pan and eagerly eaten them.

During these holidays, we used to go travelling in nature and have picnics so these rolled matzo bread were always in the food box with us.

During all these years, it was basically impossible to get this bread in the supermarkets in Finland.

This year is the first year that you can get them, but just in one supermarket and it is K market in Kamppi, Helsinki.

This is the reason that I decided to post the recipe this year.

Your kids will love it and you can add your own extra ingredients into the mixture if you would like more veggies in them.

The meat version is my own creation and also the dips.

My Mom did not use any dips but always fresh cut cucumbers and tomatoes.

So here is one of the pearls of my spring childhood favourites, with lots of love to you.

It will make me very happy if I could transfer those moments to your homes.
