Kugelis
Description
The recipe won't take much time. Traditionally, kugelis is a Jewish type of casserole; the word "kugel" means "round" in Yiddish. There have always been many Jews in Lithuania, and as a result, some Jewish dishes became popular there, particularly kugel, which Lithuanians gave their own name—kugelis. To this day, thousands of Lithuanian families prepare this dish daily. Simple to make, budget-friendly, and very filling, it can feed the entire family. I'm sharing the recipe with you. Serve hot.
