Hi Everyone,

I know there are loads of threads on potato kugel recipes, but I couldn't seem to find any that had really large quantities - I have 5lb/2.5kg of potatoes peeled in my kitchen at the moment, and want to turn it into kugel. There's another 5lb/2.5kg bag of potatoes sitting waiting to be peeled too!

Does anyone have a recipe for 5 - 10lb of potatoes? Does it freeze well?

Thanks so much

Thanks so much for the speedy reply - appreciated!

9 eggs sounds like a lot. Does anyone have any recipes that use less eggs?

Thanks

I dont have a recipe for you, but I do suggest baking them in small batches... they will bake faster and freeze better

I use the spice and spirit recipe. I triple it.
Works out at 18 potatoes and 9 eggs (I use 8)
It's yum

Yes, it is a heavy recipe. It's not my recipe, but it's delicious.
On average, 5 lbs. potatoes equals about 9 loose potatoes, though there is usually a bit more than that in a 5-lb. sack because the sack potatoes are a bit smaller
Maybe that will help you in figuring out which recipe to use. Good luck.

5 lb. potatoes
1 onion (omit if you don't like taste)
5 eggs (prefer to use 10 whites instead)
½ cup oil (nice to heat it in pan first, but not required)
1 tablespoon salt or to taste
1-2 tablespoon sugar

Grate everything together -- makes one large deep 9 x 13 or assorted smaller ones. Bake uncovered at 400 for about 1 hour.

Potato kugel tastes better after freezing if it's warmed up0 in cholent, or with the fat of the chicken on it.

Thanks so much. Haven't tasted them but they are in the freezer and look quite delicious!
