This is a very unique dish that can be found all over Jerusalem. It is a noodle casserole with carmelized sugar and lots of black pepper. Serve this warm as a different kind of side dish. I originally got this recipe from a community cookbook that was given to me along with all the other brides that got married that same year. Recipe is from Susie Gale with only a minor change. Ingredients:
12 ounces short extra-fine noodles (can also break uncooked vermicelli) |
3/4 cup oil |
1 cup sugar |
3 eggs, beaten |
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon |
1 cup brown sugar |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon black pepper |
Directions:
1. Cook and drain noodles except for about 3 tablespoons of water. Cover and set aside.
2. Boil the white sugar and oil. When the oil begins to separate and turn a deep brown and mushroom up a bit add the noodles stirring constantly. Make sure all the noodles turn brown.
3. Mix in eggs, cinnamon, brown sugar, salt and pepper again stirring constantly.
4. Pour noodle mixture into baking pan and bake at 375 for about an hour or until the top is slightly crispy.
5. Serve warm.
