"These puffs may be made with a tsp-ful of batter to yield many tiny puffs,
which are ideal crunchy hot hors d'oeuvres. For an excellent luncheon dish,
serve large puffs with a creamed mushroom sauce."
Finely chop the tuna in a wooden chopping bowl. Add the chopped almonds.
Mix together and set aside. In a medium sized saucepan, pour the cup of
tuna liquid and water mixture, add the oil, salt, parsley, grated onion and
pepper. Bring to a boil. Add the cup of matzo meal all at once. Beat
rapidly over low heat until the mixture leaves the sides of the pan and
forms a smooth compact ball. Set aside to cool a bit. Add the eggs one at a
time, beating hard with a spoon after each addition, until the mixture is
shiny. Add the tuna mixture. Blend thoroughly. Drop the mixture by the
heaping tbs-ful onto a greased baking sheet. Do not crowd them; leave room
for expansion. Bake in a preheated 450 degree F oven for 10 minutes. Turn
the heat down to 350 degrees F and continue baking for an additional 30-45
minutes, until brown. Serve hot. Posted to JEWISH-FOOD digest V97 #081 by
