Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 8

8 ounces wide egg noodles
2 extra large eggs
¼ cup white sugar
3 tablespoons butter, melted
1 cup lowfat whipped cottage cheese
8 ounces sour cream
1 pinch salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the egg noodles, and return to a boil.

  • In a bowl, mix together the eggs with white sugar until thoroughly combined, then stir in the melted butter, whipped cottage cheese, sour cream, salt, and pepper. Lightly mix in the noodles; spoon the kugel into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the top with brown sugar.

Tips:

  • Use the right noodles: Wide egg noodles or lo mein noodles are the best choices for noodle kugel. They hold their shape well and absorb the flavors of the other ingredients.
  • Cook the noodles al dente: You don't want the noodles to be too soft, or they'll become mushy in the kugel. Cook them until they're just tender, but still have a little bite to them.
  • Use a generous amount of butter: Butter is what gives noodle kugel its rich, golden color and flavor. Don't be afraid to use a full stick of butter, or even more if you like.
  • Add plenty of cheese: Cheese is another essential ingredient in noodle kugel. Use a combination of sharp cheddar and cottage cheese for the best flavor and texture.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the kugel tough. Just mix the ingredients until they're well combined.
  • Bake the kugel until it's golden brown: The kugel is done baking when it's golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Conclusion:

Noodle kugel is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as a main course or a side dish. It's perfect for potlucks, picnics, and holiday gatherings. With a few simple tips, you can make a noodle kugel that everyone will love.
