This year, the last night of falls on New Year’s Eve, making for a doubly festive evening. By this time, you’ll probably be craving something other than latkes and jelly donuts. Fried kugel, fried cheese curds, and off-kilter sufganiyot might just be the perfect way to celebrate Hanukkah while ringing in the New Year.
Like most fried foods, these appetizers are definitely meant for sharing and noshing. You can make several of them ahead of time, but the fried cheese curds are best served warm! They go perfectly with champagne or this cranberry-orange Moscato Punch.
