Potato Knish Kugel

This is another recipe I found on a forum and adapted it to make it (in my opinion) easier to make.  It’s more steps than I usually like to make in my cooking expeditions, but I got 3 9″ round kugels out of it, which in my opinion makes it all worth it!  Oh yeah, and did I forget to mention that it freezes really well too?  (I’ll be adding this one into my repertoire for Kosher OAMC!)

Some of the changes I made were that I took out the margarine and increased the number of potatoes according to what I used.  I peel the potatoes before I cook them, although I’m wondering if that step is really necessary.

Until next time,
