Kugelis Recipe

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 400u00b0F. Butter an 8 x 8 inch baking pan. Grate the potatoes on the large holes of a box grater, and place grated potatoes in a bowl of cold water.

2. 2

   Cook bacon over medium high heat until bacon is crisp and fat is rendered, about 7 minutes. Remove bacon and drain on paper towels. Once bacon is cool enough to handle, coarsely chop. Pour off all but 2 tablespoons of bacon fat, return pan to medium heat, and add chopped onion. Cook until onions are soft and brown, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and reserve.

3. 3

   Combine beaten eggs and milk and season with salt and pepper. Remove a handful of grated potatoes from water and place in center of clean dishtowel. Close towel around potato and twist towel to ring out water. Add drained potatoes to egg/milk mixture and repeat with remaining potatoes. Add chopped bacon and onions to potato mixture and, using a wooden spoon, mix until all ingredients are well combined; then pour into prepared baking pan. Place in preheated oven and bake until potatoes are soft and brown and beginning to crisp, about 1 hour. Serve with sour cream and sliced scallions.
