It’s great to hear “schmaltz” pronounced with an accent! The most important method for matzah brei is to squeeze out as much water or liquid as possible, before adding to the pan. If that step is skipped, you get a greasy mess. But the ATK version looks delicious!
The very first sentence you narrate is already inaccurate. "Matzo Brei, Yiddish for fried matzo". No. Brei means mush. Matzo Brei means mushed Matzo. Feel free to use any google translate or other tool if you don't know, before "teaching" people something wrong. Not that hard.
I was taught to break matzo into a colander, run cold water over the crackers, then allow it to drain for a few minutes before adding to a fairly hot skillet with a tablespoon of oil. Since we’re not kosher, I like to dice salami and fry it with the matzo before adding the eggs. Yum! 😁
I've never seen matzAH brie made with onions. Schmaltz is chicken fat, which makes using sour cream very unkosher. Please check with Jewish recipe sources before teaching a Jewish recipe. I appreciate that you did this but it's got several glaring errors 😕
Using animal fat and dairy together is a big nono in kashrut (Jewish dietary laws). It really makes me sad when cooking resources take Jewish recipes and make them unkosher, and I had thought that ATK would be better than that.
The 'Matzo' thing is understandable, seeing as a glance at the spelling would make someone think it's pronounced "MatzOH."

Sour cream would make this treif if you fried it in schmaltz. Eat authentically.
Man that looks good! Like Yiddish migas!
What gentile is doing the narration and leaning in to the O at the end of matzo. it should be pronounced like UH or AH, not O.

Shmaltz? And sour cream? Definitely no. I make the best fried matzah. This shiksa doesn’t know what she’s talking about.
Matzo is pronounced, Matzah. It's also not kosher if you add sour cream to Matzo Brei fried in Schmaltz.
So close to being acceptable.
Doesn’t entice the eyes
It is a Jewish Chilaquiles 😉
It's "matzah." Nobody calls it "matzo," not even ashkenazim.
You can't cook it in schmaltz and then add a dollop of sour cream, come on now.
No Palestinians were injured in the making of this dish

I'm glad you featured something my grandmother made.
