Lokshen kugel (meat)

8 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
⅓ cup Schmaltz
2 cups Onions; diced
½ pounds Egg noodles, medium
3 Eggs
Gribenes; optional
Salt
Black pepper; fresh ground

Directions

Preheat oven to 375 F. Grease an 8-cup oven dish with 1 tb schmaltz.

Saute onions in remaining schmaltz until very soft, about 15 minutes. Increase heat for a minute or two to brown onions very lightly.

Meanwhile, cook noodles in a large quantity of boiling salted water until tender, about 7-10 minutes, and drain.

Beat eggs lightly in a large mixing bowl. Add noodles and onions along with the fat in which they were cooked. Add gribenes if you are using them. Add salt and pepper to taste. Turn mixture into prepared pan and bake for 30 to 40 minutes, until lightly browned on top.
