Noodle kugels are a traditional Jewish comfort food that combines pasta with a creamy, flavorful mixture often including eggs, dairy, and various seasonings. This dish is perfect for holidays or family gatherings and can be enjoyed as a side dish or a light main course. The following recipe offers a simple yet delicious version of noodle kugels that you can easily recreate at home.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- While the pasta is cooking, peel and finely chop the onion and garlic cloves.
- In a skillet, heat a small amount of oil or butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic. Sauté until the onions are translucent and fragrant, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the 1/2 cup of sour cream and the egg until well combined.
- Finely chop the fresh parsley and add it to the batter.
- Season the batter with salt and pepper to taste, if desired.
- Add the cooked and drained pasta and the sautéed onion and garlic mixture to the bowl with the batter. Mix well to ensure all ingredients are evenly combined.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Lightly grease a baking dish (an 8x8-inch or similar size works well). Transfer the noodle mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the kugel is set in the center.
- Remove the kugel from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing.
- Garnish with additional chopped parsley, if desired, and serve warm.
Tips:
- For a creamier texture, consider adding a bit of cottage cheese or ricotta to the mixture.
- Let the kugel rest for a few minutes after baking to allow it to set properly.
- Experiment with additional ingredients like chopped spinach, mushrooms, or even dried fruit for a twist.
- To make the dish more savory, consider adding a bit of grated cheese such as cheddar or Parmesan.
- Ensure the pasta is cooked al dente, as it will continue to soften while baking.
Cooking noodle kugels is a delightful way to bring a taste of tradition to your table.
