    Wrap a slice of cheese around each Mett-Klößchen. Pour into the cutlet pockets. Fasten the pockets with wooden skewers well. Clean, wash and cut the leek into rings. Cook the spaetzle in plenty of boiling salted water for about 16 minutes until al dente.

    Then drain and allow to drip off. Bring 300 ml water to the boil. Stir in stock. Cover the leek and cook for about 12 minutes. Whisk flour and cream. Stir into the leek. Bring to the boil while stirring and simmer for about 5 minutes.

    Season to taste with salt, pepper and nutmeg. Heat the oil in a frying pan. Fry the chops for 6-8 minutes on each side, always leaving the opening of the pocket facing slightly upwards. Season chops with salt and pepper.
