INSTRUCTIONS

FRESH TOMATO SAUCE
1. Steam or microwave the carrots and cauliflower in separate pots until
just tender.
2. Puree the carrots in a food processor or blender and return to their
pot. Rinse the processor or blender container and puree the cauliflower;
return to its pot. Puree the spinach; place in a small saucepan. To each
vegetable add 1/4 cup of egg substitute and 2 teaspoons of olive oil.
Season with salt and pepper.
3. At this point, add the thyme to the carrots; the garlic and nutmeg to
the spinach. Add 1/4 cup matzo meal or bread crumbs to each and puree.
4. Coat individual glass souffle cups or an 8- inch springform pan with
olive oil cooking spray; sprinkle with matzo meal or bread crumbs.
5. Make layers in this order: first cauliflower, then spinach, then top
with carrots. (The dish may be prepared a day in advance up to this point.)
6. Bake in a preheated 400 degrees F oven 40 minutes for a large mold or 15
minutes for custard cups or until a knife inserted in the center comes out
clean.
To serve: Let stand 5 minutes before removing pan ring. Place on platter
and if desired, serve topped with Fresh Tomato Sauce and sprinkled with
fresh thyme leaves or parsley; surround with steamed broccoli and
cauliflower florets.
Fresh Tomato Sauce:
1. In a saucepan, simmer the shallots in the water and wine 2 minutes, so
that the alcohol evaporates.
2. Puree 3 of the tomatoes and chop the other 3. Add to the saucepan and
simmer 2 to 3 minutes.
3. Add a bit of the oil at a time, while whisking the sauce.
4. Add the mint, sugar, salt, and pepper. Reduce the heat and simmer gently
for 3 to 4 minutes.
5. Spoon over the vegetable kugel or serve on the side.
Note: This kugel is nice to serve for holiday and family dinners as it can
be prepared the day before. The selection of vegetables can be varied to
suit individual tastes.
