Best 4 Savory Rosemary Garlic Farfel Kugel Recipes

SAVORY ROSEMARY GARLIC FARFEL KUGEL

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• Soak matzo farfel in boiling water in a bowl for 5 minutes; drain and transfer to a large bowl.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat and cook and stir mushrooms, onions, rosemary, garlic, and salt until onions are soft and translucent, 5 to 8 minutes. Stir mushroom mixture into moistened farfel and mix in beaten eggs. Pour farfel mixture into prepared baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until set and top is lightly browned, about 1 hour.

SAVORY MUSHROOM FARFEL

Steps:

• Heat oil for sautéing in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add chopped onions and sauté till golden, stirring constantly, about five minutes.
• Add the mushrooms and sauté an additional five minutes.
• Add the farfel, chicken soup, garlic and seasonings and sauté five minutes until liquid is absorbed.
• Add celery, and cook another five minutes.

FARFEL WITH MUSHROOMS AND ONIONS

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water (4 quarts water with 1 tablespoon kosher salt) to a boil. Add the toasted farfel and cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain, but do not rinse. In a large saucepan, heat the butter or shmaltz mixture (based on if you want it meat or dairy). Add the onions and saute until translucent, 7 to 8 minutes. Add the mushrooms, salt and pepper and continue cooking, stirring often, until the mushrooms have given off most of their water and the mushrooms and onions are soft, about 30 minutes. Stir the farfel into the sauteed mushrooms and onions adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. If you are going to bake the farfel, stir in the egg and/or soup broth (if using). Transfer to a greased 2-quart baking dish. You can store the farfel covered in the refrigerator at this point for up to 2 days. Before serving, preheat oven to 350. Bake for about 30 minutes, until the top browns and the farfel is heated through. Notes: You should be able to tell if your farfel is untoasted by the color: untoasted, it has the pale yellow color similar to other egg noodles; toasted it is somewhere between beige and golden brown. If yours is untoasted, you should toast it before you proceed with this recipe: preheat the oven to 300. Spread the farfel out on a cookie sheet and set in the oven for 15 to 20 minutes, until the pasta has turned a dark beige or golden brown. Periodically rake the pasta with a large spoon or spatula to ensure it toasts evenly. Remove from the oven and cool to room temperature before proceeding.

DIRTY RICE

Steps:

• In a large, heavy saute pan, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken livers and sausage and cook, stirring, until the meat is browned, about 6 minutes. Add the remaining tablespoon of oil, the onion, bell pepper, celery, garlic, Essence, salt and pepper, and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes. Add the stock and bay leaves and scrape the bottom of the pan to loosen any browned bits. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Add the rice and stir thoroughly. Cook until the rice is heated through, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and remove the bay leaves. Stir in the parsley and serve.
• Combine all ingredients thoroughly and store in an airtight jar or container.
