LAYERED VEGETABLE KUGEL



Layered Vegetable Kugel image

This kugel involves some work, but it is worth it. I got it from one of my new cookbooks that promotes "new-ish Jewish" cuisine, combining traditional recipes with a modern slant. I usually make this when we have vegetarian guests. It makes a huge amount, so it's a good recipe to bring to potlucks or parties, and you will get all the ooohs and aaaahs when everyone sees the layers, and then again, when they taste a piece.

Make and share this Vegetable-Noodle Kugel recipe from Food.com.

Provided by ratherbeswimmin

Categories     Vegetable

Time 1h

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (8 ounce) package medium egg noodles
1 onion, chopped
2 carrots, coarsely shredded
1 zucchini, coarsely shredded
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 (16 ounce) carton sour cream
1 (12 ounce) carton cottage cheese
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Prepare noodles by following package directions; drain.
  • Cook onion, carrot, and zucchini in hot oil in a large skillet until vegetables are tender.
  • Stir in noodles, sour cream, and the next 4 ingredients.
  • Transfer mixture to a greased 2-quart casserole dish.
  • Cover and bake in a 350° oven for 25 minutes.
  • Sprinkle with parmesan cheese and bake, uncovered, for 5 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose the right vegetables. Starchy vegetables like potatoes, carrots, and parsnips are best for kugel. They hold their shape well and absorb the flavors of the other ingredients.
  • Shred the vegetables finely. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from becoming too mushy.
  • Use a good quality oil. Olive oil or vegetable oil are both good choices. Avoid using butter, as it can make the kugel too greasy.
  • Season the kugel well. Salt, pepper, and garlic powder are all essential seasonings for kugel. You can also add other herbs and spices to taste.
  • Bake the kugel until it is golden brown and crispy on top. This usually takes about 45 minutes to an hour.
  • Let the kugel cool slightly before serving. This will help it to set and make it easier to slice.

Conclusion:

Vegetable kugel is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as a side dish, main course, or even a snack. It is a great way to use up leftover vegetables and it is also a good source of vitamins and minerals. With so many different variations to choose from, there is sure to be a vegetable kugel recipe that everyone will enjoy.
