Käsespätzle

Ingredients

• 300g plain flour
• 4 eggs
• 100ml milk
• 1 tsp salt
• 200g Bergkase or Gruyere, grated

• 3 tbsp butter

Method

1. Make the Spatzle batter: mix flour, eggs, milk, and salt until smooth and slightly elastic.
2. Press batter through a Spatzle grater or colander into boiling salted water. Cook until they float, about 2-3 minutes. Drain.
3. Fry onions in butter very slowly for 20-25 minutes until deeply caramelised.
4. Layer Spatzle and cheese in a warm dish, mixing gently. Top with caramelised onions. Serve immediately.
