Jerusalem Sweet-Hot Noodle Casserole/ Yerushalmi Kugel image

This is a very unique dish that can be found all over Jerusalem. It is a noodle casserole with carmelized sugar and lots of black pepper. Serve this warm as a different kind of side dish. I originally got this recipe from a community cookbook that was given to me along with all the other brides that got married that same year. Recipe is from Susie Gale with only a minor change.

This casserole is a great way to use up leftover chicken or turkey. I simply shredded some cooked chicken and added it to the filling. It added an extra layer of flavor and protein.

The crispy topping is the cherry on top. It adds a delightful crunch and texture that contrasts wonderfully with the soft noodles and sweet filling.
