Potato And Smoked Salmon Kugel Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Spray a 9-by-13-inch glass baking dish with nonstick spray.
• Melt the schmaltz (or heat the oil) in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onions, thyme and pepper; cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are softened, 3 to 4 minutes.

Scatter with pepper, a squeeze of lemon and a few dill fronds. Give the sauce a quick whisk, add the chopped dill, season to taste, then pour into a dipping bowl. Scoop the soured cream into another. To eat, dip the potatoes into the cream, then spoon over a little sauce.
