👨🍳 Istruzioni

If using dried mushrooms, rehydrate them in warm water for at least 30 minutes, then chop. If using fresh mushrooms, clean and chop them. Sauté the chopped mushrooms in a pan until tender and any excess liquid has evaporated.

In a separate pan, fry the diced bacon until crispy. Remove the bacon bits with a slotted spoon, leaving the rendered fat in the pan. Sauté the finely chopped onions in the bacon fat until softened and translucent.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, sour cream, salt, pepper, and marjoram. Pour this mixture over the potato and mushroom mixture and mix thoroughly until well combined.

Bake for 1 hour and 30 minutes, or until the kugelis is golden brown on top and firm to the touch. A skewer inserted into the center should come out clean.

Let the kugelis rest for about 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving. It can be served warm or at room temperature.
