MY FAVORITE BASIC POTATO KUGEL (BAKED)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 500 F, 475 if using a.
• Crack eggs into small bowl and mix well with salt and white pepper. Pour into food processor bowl.
• Pour oil into a 9" round baking pan (disposable is fine). Place pan in oven.
• Working very quickly to prevent potatoes from browning (and oil from burning), peel, wash, and grate potatoes on high speed using a grating blade, not a shredding, pureeing, or blending blade. (This is typically a blade that has both very tiny and larger holes in it and makes the potatoes into a "mush" that is not smooth but has very tiny bits of potato, though not big lumps or long stringy shreds.).
• Remove pan with oil from oven, and pour oil into potato mixture. Mix well with rubber scaper to scrape down sides of bowl.
• Spray pan with nonstick cooking spray, pour in batter, and bake for 45-60 min or until top is dark and crusty with a deep brown color.
• Note: For a really white kugel, I recommend you refrigerate the potatoes for several hours or overnight. The colder they are, the longer it takes for them to turn brown, which would give your kugel a darker color. I put the potatoes in the fridge as soon as I buy them, and if I don't take them out until every other step is done and I'm ready to peel and grate them immediately, I get a lovely-looking kugel that is almost snow white!
