It's Passover.
I immediately thought of a Jewish dish I first tasted many years ago. I was living in Boston and worked with a young, newly-engaged Jewish woman. We practiced together as she learned to cook. She shared many wonderful Jewish recipes from her mother and grandmother. This is one I loved to prepare for my family. It is perfect to serve it in place of other side carb dishes. It is not as sweet as you might expect, considering the ingredients.
NOODLE APPLE KUGEL
You will need 1 pkg. wide noodles, about 6 apples(Delicious or Gala), raisins, lemon juice, eggs, sugar and cinnamon.
Prepare 1 pkg. (1 lb. ) wide noodles according to pkg. directions. Set aside.
Beat 5 eggs slightly. Add 1 cup sugar, 1 1/2 tsps. cinnamon, 1 1/2 tbs. lemon juice; beat
well.
Mix in 1 cup raisins, 3/4 cups peeled, seeded and chopped apples and the noodles.
Turn one half of the mixture into a well oiled 3-qt baking dish.
Spoon another 3/4 cup of apple pieces evenly over first layer. Top with remaining noodle
mixture. Sprinkle with 1/2 tsp. cinnamon, drizzle with melted butter.
Bake at 350 deg. F. for 45 mins. Serve slightly warm or chilled.
