Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease an 8x12-inch baking dish. (5 minutes)

02

Step

Place a colander in the sink. Add the matzo farfel to the colander; pour boiling water over it to soften. Let it drain thoroughly. (2 minutes)

03

Step

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and cook until softened and translucent, about 5-7 minutes. (7 minutes)

04

Step

Add the chopped mushrooms to the skillet and cook until they release their moisture and are nicely browned, about 8-10 minutes. (10 minutes)

05

Step

Stir in the dried dill weed, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Remove from heat. (1 minute)

06

Step

Add the drained matzo farfel to the skillet with the mushroom and onion mixture. Stir well to combine thoroughly. (3 minutes)

07

Step

Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and spread evenly. (1 minute)

08

Step

Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour, or until golden brown and set. (60 minutes)

09

Step

Let cool slightly before slicing and serving. (10 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of dry sherry or white wine to the mushroom mixture while cooking.
Feel free to experiment with different types of mushrooms to customize the flavor profile.
This kugel can be made ahead of time and reheated before serving. Cover tightly with foil to prevent drying out.
Adding 1/4 cup of chopped fresh parsley will also enhance the taste.

    The baking time was perfect. It came out golden brown and crispy on top.

  • Howell Breitenberg

    I added a clove of minced garlic along with the powder for extra flavor. Delicious!

  • Kali Cronin

    Could I substitute the dried dill weed for fresh dill? If so, what would the measurement conversion be?

  • Shanel Vonrueden

    This was so comforting, I made a double batch and froze half for later!

  • Jordan Kautzer

    So easy to make, and a great way to use up leftover matzo farfel.

  • Wilbert Sauer

    This recipe was a hit! The dill really makes a difference.

  • Leonor Mcdermott

    Instead of olive oil, I used schmaltz, and it added a wonderful richness.

  • Pascale Wintheiser

    I used vegetable broth instead of boiling water to soften the farfel, and it added another layer of flavor.

  • Adam Ebert

    Next time I will try adding some chopped walnuts for extra texture.

  • Claudie Lockman

    My family loved this! I will definitely be making it again.
