How to Make Aish S Grated Potato Kugel

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  2. In a large bowl, beat 6 large eggs until thick and frothy (about 2-3 minutes).
  3. Add 5 pounds of grated potatoes and gently stir to combine.
  4. Stir in 1 large onion, finely chopped; 1 cup of vegetable oil; 1 teaspoon salt; ½ teaspoon black pepper; 2 tablespoons matzah meal; and 1 teaspoon of paprika.
  5. Pour the potato mixture into the prepared baking dish.
  6. Bake for 60-65 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.
  7. Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
