thumb|right|200px|Hannukkah dishes - including potato kugel slices (top row, left-center, with $6.99 sign)Potato kugel is a variation on kugel eaten by many Ashkenazi Jews as a side dish on the Sabbath. It is a casserole typically containing grated or ground potatoes, onions, eggs, flour or matzo meal, oil, salt and pepper.

Some modern cooks add a small amount of baking powder. In addition to lightening the dish, the powder's alkaline chemistry breaks down the potatoes and produces a smoother texture while promoting browning.
