TZIMMES KUGEL

This recipe comes from Levana Kirschenbaum, one of my favorite cooks in New York. Tzimmes is normally cooked loosely in a pot and served as a pretty wet side dish, but Levana put a whole new spin on this traditional food, and has turned it into a delicious kugel. If you use matzo meal instead of flour, it's a fantastic addition to your Passover repetoire.
