Note: The laws of Shabbat rest mandate that all cooking and baking be done before Shabbat, and regulate food preparation done on Shabbat in other ways as well. For more information, see Food Preparation on Shabbat.

My beloved father in law taught me to make this dish over 30 years ago but I have modified it a bit by eliminating the oil and adding toasted slivered almonds and cinnamon. All of my children love this dish even though they are all adults now! It is delicious warm or cold.
