Mistake in Blessing at 'Urchatz'

Question

On the night of the Seder, after 'Urchatz', he washed his hands and mistakenly recited the blessing 'Asher kid'shanu b'mitzvotav v'tzivanu al netilat yadayim'. What should he do: recite 'Hamotzi' now and eat matzah, do nothing, or is there another solution? Thank you very much.

Answer

Hello 

Do not eat matzah and rely on the opinion of the Gaon, Rabbi Eliyahu, that a blessing is required for dipping the vegetable in liquid.
