Tzimmes Kugel is a sweet and savory Jewish casserole dish that combines the flavors of carrots, sweet potatoes, and dried fruit with a hearty noodle kugel. It is a popular dish for holidays and special occasions, and there are many different variations on the recipe.

The kugel is typically made with egg noodles, but it can also be made with other types of noodles, such as potato noodles or matzo meal.

TZIMMES KUGEL
This recipe comes from Levana Kirschenbaum, one of my favorite cooks in New York. Tzimmes is normally cooked loosely in a pot and served as a pretty wet side dish, but Levana put a whole new spin on this traditional food, and has turned it into a delicious kugel. If you use matzo meal instead of flour, it's a fantastic addition to your Passover repetoire.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375°.
- Grease an 11x7-inch baking pan.
- By hand or in food processor in two batches, chop and mix all ingredients.
- Put in prepared pan and bake for 45 minutes or until browned and bubbly.
Tips:
- Choose the right carrots. For the best flavor and texture, use fresh, young carrots. Avoid carrots that are too large or have a woody core.
- Cut the carrots into uniform pieces. This will help them cook evenly. If you are using a food processor, be sure to pulse the carrots until they are evenly chopped.
- Don't overcook the carrots. They should be tender but still have a slight bite to them.
- Add the sweetener of your choice. Traditionally, tzimmes kugel is made with honey. However, you can also use maple syrup, brown sugar, or even stevia.
- Season the kugel to taste. In addition to the sweetener, you can also add salt, pepper, cinnamon, nutmeg, or other spices to taste.
- Bake the kugel until it is set and golden brown. This usually takes about 45 minutes to 1 hour.
- Let the kugel cool for a few minutes before serving. This will help it set and make it easier to slice.
Conclusion:
Tzimmes kugel is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as a side dish or a main course. It is a great way to use up leftover carrots and is a perfect dish for a holiday meal. With its sweet and savory flavor, tzimmes kugel is sure to be a hit with everyone at your table.
