Kugelis (potato pudding)
5 or 6 large potatoes 1/4 tsp pepper
2 onions 1/2 cup hot milk or evaporated milk
3 slices of bacon 4 eggs
2 tsp salt
peel and grate fine the potatoes and onion (Mom used the blender but grandma didn't)
cut bacon crosswise into narrow strips, fry until crisp,pour fat and bacon over potatoes, add hot milk. Add beaten eggs one at a time, add salt and pepper blend---bake 400' for 15 minutes--reduce heat to 375' and bake 45 minutes longer. cut into squares serve hot with sour cream as a main course or side dish.
I hope this recipe helps----I understand that different regions of Lithuania had variations of these recipes---my grandmothers were from the Vilnus area.
Thank you so much --- do you heat the evaporated milk? What type of potato do you use? Yellow or white onion? My GPs were also from the Vilnus area.
