Utterly simple and always satisfying. Potato kugel at its very best! Serve with fresh vegetable sticks and a light dressing, and a scoop of cottage cheese, if desired.

Prepare the Casserole
-
Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius).
-
Sauté onions in butter and oil for about five minutes over moderate heat.
-
Add mushrooms, if desired, salt, and black pepper and sauté another five to eight minutes.
-
Meanwhile, chop potatoes finely in the food processor, using the knife blade. Drain and set aside.
-
Combine onion mixture with potatoes in a large bowl. Mix in eggs and sour cream.
-
Lightly oil the bottom of a 9x13-inch (23x33-centimeter) pan (glass recommended).
-
Sprinkle bottom with cornflake crumbs.
-
Pour kugel mixture into pan and spread evenly. Dust top with paprika and dill.
-
Bake one to one and a half hours, uncovered, until crisp on top and potatoes are soft.
1 10-oz (290-gram) can sliced mushrooms/1 small basket fresh mushrooms, sliced, may be substituted for the canned mushrooms (optional).
Every oven differs, but mine needed almost one and a half hours to cook this casserole. Serve with applesauce and sour cream, sprinkled with cinnamon, if desired.
