Kittencal's Potato Kugel

Recipe #69020 | 1½ hours | 30 min prep | add private note

This is mostly served as a side dish with pot roast and gravy, I have even made this for Sunday brunch and served it with eggs! --- to save time the potatos may be grated and kept refrigerated covered completely in cold water for up to 3 days ---I like to also add in some cayenne pepper for a little heat --- for a lighter fluffier textured kugel add in another egg with 1 teaspoon baking powder --- for Passover subsitute matzo meal for the flour.

SERVES 6 -8 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Set oven to 400 degrees F ( (bottom oven rack).
  2. 2
    Grease a 13 x 9-inch baking pan, then pour about 3 tablespoons oil into bottom of the baking dish.
  3. 3
    .Squeeze out excess moisture from the shredded potatoes with hands, and place into a large bowl, then add in chopped onion.
  4. 4
    Add in remaining ingredients with 3 tablespoons remaining oil; mix well to combine (I use my hands for mixing).
  5. 5
    Adjust the salt and pepper if needed.
  6. 6
    The next step is only optional it will speed up cooking time and create a crispy bottom and sides.
  7. 7
    Place the baking dish with the oil in the oven and heat the oil for about 6-8 minutes.
  8. 8
    Carefully spread the potato mixture in the baking dish (careful, the dish will be hot!) .
  9. 9
    This step is only optional otherwise just pour the potato mixture into the oiled cold baking dish.
  10. 10
    Bake uncovered for about 1-1/4 hours, or until nicely browned on top (the longer that you bake it the more crispier it will be, so bake until it is to desired crispness).

I couldn't find my kugel recipe so I tried this one because it looked the closest and I am sure glad I did! Very delicious! Thanks for sharing!

    Nice recipe. It was a bit more solid than I expected, but nice all the same.

    I loved the technique of heating the oil so that the exterior gets crispy, so I thank you for providing that hint. However, my "men-folk" weren't all that fond of the taste/texture. I think they prefer a creamier texture, whereas this is pretty solid.
