Preparation
- In a large bowl, beat eggs just until blended. Add potatoes. Season generously with salt and pepper. Mix well.
- Oil the interior of a straight-sided 3- to 4-quart saucepan, and place over medium-high heat. When oil is hot, add potato mixture. Smooth surface with a spatula. Cover, and reduce heat to low. Cook until mixture is set, potatoes are tender and edges of mixture turn firm and golden, about 1 hour. (Halfway through, the oil at the edge of the kugel should be sizzling. If not, raise temperature.)
- Run a knife around edge of pot. Reverse pot over a plate, and remove kugel. Return kugel to pot with uncooked side at bottom.
- Place pot over medium-low heat. Cook uncovered until bottom browns, 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer kugel to a serving plate, and cut into wedges. Serve hot.
