Forgot to say 'Al HaNissim' and did not finish the blessing
Question
Hello, During Hanukkah, if a person did not say 'Al HaNissim' in the Amidah during Mincha and is in the middle of concluding the blessing 'Hatov Shimcha Ulecha Na'eh Lehodot' — meaning he only said Baruch Ata, how should he continue?
Answer
Hello and Happy Hanukkah
Since he has not yet said the Name of God, he should go back and say 'Al HaNissim', and then continue from there as usual.
