Passover Matzo Kugel With Vegetables Food

PASSOVER POTATO KUGEL

Steps:

• Place a 9x13 baking dish or pan in the oven and preheat oven to 400 degrees, letting the dish heat up inside. Peel the potatoes, then use a food processor or hand grater to grate them into large shreds.
• Place the potato shreds in a large mixing bowl and cover with cold water. Let the shreds sit for a few minutes.
• Meanwhile, peel and shred the two large onions in the food processor or with a hand grater. Reserve.
• In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, salt and pepper until fluffy.
• Drain the potato shreds in a colander, pushing down firmly on top of the shreds with your hands to push out the excess liquid.
• Place grated potatoes in a large bowl. Add the seasoned eggs, grated onions and potato starch to the bowl. Use your hands to mix all ingredients together until well combined.
• Take the preheated baking dish out of the oven. Quickly pour in 3 tbsp schmaltz or olive oil, then use a pastry brush to carefully spread the fat around the bottom and sides of the hot dish. Careful, don't burn yourself! The hot dish, while a bit difficult to navigate, will help to form a beautiful brown and crisp crust for the kugel.
• Carefully and quickly spread the potato mixture into an even layer in the baking dish (it should sizzle!), then drizzle remaining 1 tbsp of melted schmaltz or olive oil across the top.
• Bake uncovered at 400 degrees for 60-70 minutes until the top is nicely browned all across the top. If it seems to be browning too fast (before the center is cooked), cover the kugel to keep it from over-browning. You really want it to have a nice golden crust-- at the end of cooking, if it's not quite brown enough, you can put it 6 inches below the broiler for a minute or two to evenly brown it all across the top. This kugel tastes best served hot directly from the oven. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.

PASSOVER FRUIT KUGEL

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°F. Grease a 7x11-inch pan. In a bowl combine the eggs, sugar and oil. In another bowl combine the pineapple with the juice, apples and matzo meal. Thoroughly combine the content of the two bowls. Add the prunes and apricots. Spoon the mixture into the prepared pan. Bake for 45 minutes or until golden brown.

TRADITIONAL MATZO KUGEL FOR PASSOVER

Steps:

• Soak the Matzo sheets in some water until they become slightly soft. You do not want the sheets to be soggy. They should keep their form yet be easy to break into several pieces without causing too many crumbs. I usually run water over my Matzo sheets.
• Shake off the excess water without worrying if there remains a little extra water. Gently break the Matzo sheets into pieces in a bowl.
• Preheat the oven to 175°C / 350°F. Melt the butter in a casserole over a low heat (or in the microwave).
• Beat the eggs well. Add the salt, sugar, cinnamon, and melted butter.
• Pour the egg mixture into the bowl with the Matzo pieces. Mix gently until the pieces are covered by egg.
• Wash, peel, core and chop the apples. I used a combination of sour and sweet apples. The choice of apples is up to you.
• Add the chopped apples, raisins and chopped nuts (if you are using). Mix gently.
• Pour the Matzo-egg mixture into a baking dish. Add the remaining butter reserved for the topping by spreading little dots of butter on top of the dish.
• Place the baking dish in the oven and bake about 45 minutes or until golden brown on top.
• Remove the baking dish from the oven and let it cool about 10 or 15 minutes before serving.

MRS. FEINBERG'S VEGETABLE KUGEL

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Lightly brush muffin tins with margarine. Set aside. In a medium bowl, combine 1/2 cup margarine, apple, sweet potato, carrot, matzo meal, salt, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and sugar. Stir to combine. Divide mixture evenly between nine of the prepared muffin tins (three will be left empty).
• Cover with parchment paper and aluminum foil. Bake 30 minutes. Increase oven temperature to 350 degrees, remove paper and foil, and continue baking until firm and dark golden brown, 5 to 10 minutes more. Serve immediately.

PASSOVER SWEET KUGEL

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Generously grease a 9x13 baking dish.
• Moisten the matzo farfel by placing in a large bowl, stirring in enough cold water to cover, and rinsing immediately in a colander set in the sink. Mix in beaten eggs, sugar, salt, and margarine until thoroughly combined, and lightly mix in the apples, bananas, and 1/4 cup of ground walnuts. Spoon the kugel into the prepared baking dish, and sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup of ground walnuts.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the kugel is browned and set in the center, about 1 hour. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.

PASSOVER MATZO KUGEL WITH VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Coat an 11-by-7-inch baking dish with cooking spray. Heat oven to 350 degrees.
• Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large, nonstick skillet over medium; add onion and cook until soft and golden, about 20 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl.
• Add mushrooms to skillet; cook until browned, about 5 minutes. Add to bowl.
• Add 2 tablespoons of the oil to skillet; add artichokes and carrots and cook until carrots are tender, about 10 minutes. Transfer to bowl.
• Beat 5 of the eggs with fork; toss with farfel. Add 1 tablespoon oil to skillet; add farfel and cook, stirring often, until it is toasty, 5 to 6 minutes. Transfer to bowl; stir in the thyme, salt, pepper, soup mix (To taste) and parsley and transfer to baking dish.
• Combine the 2 remaining eggs with broth and pour over the farfel. Bake 45 minutes, or until the center is no longer wet. Makes 16 servings.

MATZO PUDDING OR KUGEL

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease a small (casserole with butter or margarine and set aside.
• Warm the juice (I microwave 30 seconds on high) in the small bowl. Add the raisins and set aside. (To add extra color, I often mix yellow and dark raisins.) The raisins soak up some of the juice and get plumper and soft. After that happens, drain the excess juice.
• Soak the matzo pieces in the bowl with a few cups of water for a few minutes until just soft, but not disintegrated. Drain well, pressing the matzohs with your hand so most of the water drains out.
• Add the sugar and cinnamon, grated lemon peel, and eggs. Mix well, but not too roughly. The matzo may break up more and the resulting mixture has matzoh pieces of varying sizes.
• Add the apple pieces and raisins and mix again, gently incorporating the fruit. I haven't specified the type of apples because I make this with all types, often mixed. Use whatever type you prefer, or follow my lead and use an assortment.
• Pour the mixture into the casserole and dot with butter or margarine. Bake for 35-45 minutes until the top of the casserole is browned and crisp. (If the top isn't browning, turn the heat up during the last 5 minutes or so to 375 degrees.) Serve hot.

VEGAN PASSOVER KUGEL RECIPE - (4/5)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Use part of the oil to grease two 8x8 casserole dishes. Mix the 3/4 cup of water with the ground flax in a small separate bowl and set aside. In a food processor, coarsely grate squash, carrots, potatoes, onion, and chopped garlic. In a large bowl, combine the grated vegetables with the spices, flax-water mixture, and the 4 tablespoons of oil. Pour the vegetable mixture into the greased casserole dishes so that they are evenly distributed. Bake for 50 minutes on the top rack of your oven, or until the vegetables are tender and the top of the kugel is browned. Let rest for 15 minutes and serve.
