Cabbage, Onion and Millet Kugel image

Light, nutty millet combines beautifully with the sweet, tender cabbage and onions in this kugel. I wouldn't hesitate to serve this as a main dish.

Time 2h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 medium head cabbage (1 1/2 pounds), cored and cut in thin strips
Salt to taste
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1/4 cup chopped fresh dill
Freshly ground pepper
1 cup low-fat cottage cheese
2 eggs
2 cups cooked millet

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Oil a 2-quart baking dish. Toss the cabbage with salt to taste and let it sit for 10 minutes
  • Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over medium heat in a large, heavy skillet and add the onion. Cook, stirring, until it begins to soften, about 3 minutes, then add a generous pinch of salt and turn the heat to medium-low. Cook, stirring often, until the onion is soft and beginning to color, about 10 minutes. Add the cabbage, turn the heat to medium, and cook, stirring often, until the cabbage is quite tender and fragrant, 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in the dill, taste and adjust salt, and add pepper to taste. Transfer to a large bowl
  • In a food processor fitted with the steel blade, purée the cottage cheese until smooth. Add the eggs and process until the mixture is smooth. Add salt (I suggest about 1/2 teaspoon) and pepper and mix together. Scrape into the bowl with the cabbage. Add the millet and stir everything together. Scrape into the oiled baking dish. Drizzle the remaining oil over the top and place in the oven
  • Bake for about 40 minutes, until the sides are nicely browned and the top is beginning to color. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature, cut into squares or wedges
