Steps:
- First, make your dough. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, salt, pepper and dill.
- Then add in eggs, olive oil and water and use a large spoon to combine into a dough. You can also use a dough hook on a stand mixer to make the dough.
- Knead for 5 minutes, adding flour as needed so dough is tacky but not super sticky. Dough should be smooth. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and let rest at room temperature for 1 hour.
- Meanwhile, make your filling!
- First, caramelize your onion. This is going to take awhile, so be patient! Heat a large, sauté pan over medium high heat and add 1 tablespoon olive oil and heat. Then add onions and 1/2 teaspoon salt and brown, stirring occasionally so they don't burn. If the onions start to stick, add a little water to the pan. After 10 minutes or when onions start to get nice and caramel, lower heat to medium. Cook for 1 hour, stirring occasionally, or until onions are very brown and have reduced down to about 3/4 cup. Optional, you can add 2 tablespoons dry white wine to deglaze the pan towards the end. Stir the wine until it evaporates, while scraping up the tasty bits on the bottom of the pan.
- Set onions aside and clean the pan (or use a new pan). Heat over medium high heat and add 1 tablespoon olive oil and heat. Season chicken well with salt and pepper and sauté until cooked through, about 7-8 minutes.
- Add caramelized onions, chicken, garlic clove and 1 tablespoon broth to a food processor. Pulse until you have a well chopped filling but not a paste. It should be moist, but not too wet or dry. Add more broth if it's dry. Season to taste with salt and pepper. (If you don't have a food processor, you can do this by chopping the chicken and onions very fine by hand and then mixing in minced garlic, broth and salt and pepper.)
- Now it's time to assemble! Bring a large pot of chicken broth or salted water to a simmer.
- Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface with a lightly floured rolling pin to 1/8 thick or even thinner depending on your preference. I like mine on the thicker side. Cut into 3 inch squares and add 1 teaspoon filling to one corner. Fold in half and use water to help seal so no there are no leaks. Depending on how thin you roll the dough, you may have extra filling. Eat with crackers or on a sandwich!
- Simmer kreplach for 20 minutes or until tender (less for thiner dough). (Don't overcrowd the pot, you may have to do this in batches.) Serve as is or in soup! Alternatively, you can fry in oil (I use grape seed oil.)
CHICKEN WITH CARAMELIZED ONION AND CARDAMOM RICE
A stunningly fragrant one-pot meal, this chicken and rice dish came to The Times from Yotam Ottolenghi and Sami Tamimi's smash hit "Jerusalem: A Cookbook." Spiced with cinnamon, cardamom and whole cloves, its aromatic earthiness is balanced by plenty of herbs - dill, parsley and cilantro - for freshness and tang. And caramelized onions and dried barberries (or currants) contribute a gentle sweetness. This is dinner party food that is at once elegant and supremely comforting.

Steps:
- Put the sugar and scant 3 tablespoons water in a small saucepan and heat until the sugar dissolves. Remove from the heat, add the barberries, and set aside to soak. If using currants, you do not need to soak them in this way.
- Meanwhile, heat half the olive oil in a large sauté pan for which you have a lid over medium heat. Add the onion, and cook for 10 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onion has turned a deep golden brown. Transfer the onion to a small bowl and wipe the pan clean.
- Place the chicken in a large mixing bowl and season with 1½ teaspoons each salt and black pepper. Add the remaining olive oil, cardamom, cloves and cinnamon and use your hands to mix everything together well. Heat the frying pan again and place the chicken and spices in it. Sear chicken for 5 minutes on each side and remove from the pan (this is important as it part-cooks the chicken). The spices can stay in the pan, but don't worry if they stick to the chicken. Remove most of the remaining oil as well, leaving just a thin film at the bottom. Add the rice, caramelized onion, 1 teaspoon salt and plenty of black pepper. Drain the barberries and add them as well. Stir well and return the seared chicken to the pan, pushing it into the rice.
- Pour the boiling water over the rice and chicken, cover the pan, and cook over very low heat for 30 minutes. Take the pan off the heat, remove the lid, quickly place a clean tea towel over the pan, and seal again with the lid. Leave the dish undisturbed for another 10 minutes. Finally, add the herbs and use a fork to stir them in and fluff up the rice. Taste and add more salt and pepper if needed. Serve hot or warm with yogurt mixture if you like.

CHICKEN KREPLACH SOUP
Kreplach are dumplings that go swimming in Jewish chicken soup. They originated in Eastern Europe and can be filled with ground or chopped meat or veggies. I grew up watching my dad eat them at our local deli, but as a kid I always preferred matzo balls (the other, more famous Jewish soup dumpling) so it wasn't actually until recently that I realized the true magic of kreplach. While most kreplach are on the smaller side, I like my kreplach BIG with thick, chewy dough.

Steps:
- For the soup base: Combine the chicken, onion, carrot chunks, celery chunks, parsnip chunks, garlic, dill, thyme, bay leaves and peppercorns in a large pot. Add cold water to cover by 2 inches (about 5 quarts). Bring to a simmer, then simmer until the chicken is very tender, about 1 1/2 hours. Let cool, then strain the broth (you should have about 3 1/2 quarts). Shred the chicken into a medium bowl, discarding the skin and bones. (You'll have 2 to 2 1/2 cups chicken meat.)
- For the kreplach: Combine the flour and 1 teaspoon salt in a food processor and pulse to combine. Mix the eggs, vegetable oil and 2 tablespoons cold water in a spouted measuring cup. With the processor running, pour in the egg mixture and process until the dough forms a ball on the blade, about 30 seconds. (If the dough doesn't form a ball after 30 seconds or is too crumbly, adjust with a tablespoon or so of flour if too loose or a tablespoon or so of water if too crumbly.) Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let rest at room temperature while you prepare the filling.
- For the filling, heat the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium low heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until deep golden, 10 to 15 minutes. Add to the shredded chicken along with the chopped dill, lemon zest and nutmeg. Season with salt and pepper and mix well.
- Cut the rested dough into quarters, then cut each quarter into 3 pieces (12 pieces in all). On a floured surface, press, pat or roll a chunk of dough to about a thin 3-inch round. Hold the round in the palm of your hand and add 2 tablespoons filling. Press the dough closed to encase the filling and form a ball, twisting and tearing off any excess dough. Set twisted-side down on a floured baking sheet and repeat with the remaining dough and filling. (Any remaining filling can be added to the soup!)
- Heat the stock over medium heat and add the diced carrot, celery and parsnip. Simmer until just tender, about 15 minutes. Add the kreplach (dusting off any excess flour) and simmer until the dough is tender, 7 to 8 minutes. Serve the soup in bowls with slices of lemon and garnished with fresh dill.

CHICKEN WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS
You would not believe the flavor that comes out of such a simple recipe. The onion cheese combination is delicious. Swiss can be substituted but you won't get nearly the flavor. Recipe comes from a cookbook by Pol Martin.

FRIED ONION AND CHICKEN KREPLACH
Here the onions are salted first to draw out the moisture and then fried. If you are pressed for time or don't want to bother, omit the soaking and fry the onions a little longer over medium heat. Using a high proportion of savory fried onions to the chicken ensures that the filling for the kreplach won't be dry - even if the chicken left its flavor in the soup pot. "Jewish Holiday Cooking" by Jayne Cohen - a beautiful book, which was given to me by a nun who ate here one year during the High HolyDays. Chilling times & cooling times included. Submitted on September 2, 2008 in preparation of Rosh Hashonah meals.

Steps:
- Separate the onions into rings.
- To draw out the moisture, toss in a bowl with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt; set aside for about 20 minutes, stirring from time to time.
- Then place the onions between sheets of paper towelling, pressing down to soak up as much onion water as possible.
- Meanwhile, prepare the chicken: roughly shred it (preferably using your fingers, so you can find little bits of gristle or bone) and place in a bowl.
- If the chicken is very dry - usually the case if you are using chicken left over from soup - spoon some broth over it, mix well, and let it drink in the liquid for at least 15 minutes.
- Heat the oil in a large heavy skillet over med-high heat; add the onion, and keep tossing with a spatula as they soften and begin to golden.
- Stir in the garli and continue cooking and turning, until the mixture is a deep caramel color, but before it turns crispy, about 5 minutes.
- Stir the onions into the chicken and let cool slightly,
- Add the egg, dill, and salt and pepper to taste.
- Refrigerate the mixture for at least an hour.
- Fill and trim the kreplach using about 1 heaping teaspoon of filling per krepl, folding into a tight triangle, and sealing with the egg wash.
- Poach the kreplach, in a large wide pot, bring at least 5 qts of lightly salted water to boil.
- Slip in the kreplach, one by one, being careful not to overcrowd the pot (if necessary cook in batches).
- Lower the temperature slightly (the kreplach might explode if the water is boiling furiously) and poach until tender - 3-5 minutes (exact time will vary on the brand of wonton wrappers used).
- Lift out the kreplach, a few at a time with a large skimmer, gently shaking the skimmer so the water drains back into the pot (they are too fragile to pour into a colander).
- Serve the kreplach in soup. Or serve poached or sauteed kreplach with gravy, fried onions, or fried mushrooms as a side dish or appetizer.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a large deep frying pan over a low heat.
- Add the onions with a generous pinch of salt and cook slowly for 30-40 mins. Stir occasionally to prevent them from sticking or burning until they become soft and golden. If the onions start to catch, add a splash of water to the pan and mix well.
- Add the sugar and vinegar to give them a sweet, slightly sharp chutney flavour. Keep cooking on a low heat for another 5 mins, stirring occasionally until the mix is sticky, the sugar has dissolved and the vinegar has reduced. The onions are now ready to serve, or use in a recipe.
