Ingredients

Servings: 4
  • 500 g Flour
  • 5 Eggs
  • 175 ml Water
  • 200 g Emmental or mountain cheese, grated
  • 2 Onions
  • 50 g Butter
  • 3 Stalk parsley, possibly

Directions

  1. 1

    Whip the flour, eggs, water and salt to a smooth dough. Leave the dough to swell for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    In the meantime, cut the onions into fine slices and fry them in a hot pan with the butter until golden brown. Keep warm.

  3. 3

    Bring water and salt to the boil in a large pot. Put the finished spaetzle dough through a spaetzle press into the boiling water. When the spaetzle are cooked, skim them off the surface of the water.

  4. 4

    Place the finished spaetzle alternately with the grated Emmental (or mountain cheese) in an ovenproof form/bowl or rustic pan. Start with spaetzle and finish with a layer of cheese.

  5. 5

    Then bake the cheese noodles for 15 minutes at 180° C top/bottom heat in a preheated oven. Finally, sprinkle the fried onions on top and garnish with some parsley if necessary. Serve immediately.

  6. 6

    A green salad goes well with it.
