Debi’S Carrot & Zucchini Kugel
- 7 medium zucchini, coarsely grated
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 5 medium carrots, grated
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 large yellow onions, minced
- 3 large cloves garlic, minced
- 3 slices whole wheat matzah, pulverized to a fine crumb
- 3/4 cup silken tofu, pulverized to a smooth liquid
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F, rack in the middle. Lightly oil a 9x13 baking pan with olive oil.
- Place the grated zucchini in a colander over the sink. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and let stand for 15 minutes. Squeeze out all excess moisture; set aside.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until just shiny. Add onion and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and saute until onion becomes very soft and begins to caramelize, 8-10 minutes. Add the garlic and continue to saute for an additional 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
- In a large bowl mix together zucchini, sauteed onion, and carrot. Add the matzah crumb, tofu and black pepper, and using your hands (to REALLY get in there) thoroughly combine.
- Spread the vegetable mixture into the prepared pan. Bake for 90 minutes, midway through lightly brushing the surface with a bit of olive oil for a crispy, crispy crust. Enjoy!
