Home made German dumplings. If you can find a Spaetzle maker, it makes the job easier.. The chef in the family, my son, tells me that they are better, if you melt some butter and sauté a chopped onion, then you add your cooked spaetzles, let them absorb the flavour and serve. He is right.
Ingredients:
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 1/2 cups flour, sifted
1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
Directions:
1. Bring a large saucepan of salted water to a boil.
2. Reduce heat and maintain water to a simmer.
3. In medium bowl, combine all the ingredients into a batter.
4. Place a colander over the pan of water. Pour about 1/4 of the batter in the colander and press through the holes into the water with a spatula.
5. When dumplings begin to float, cover pan and simmer about 5 minutes until they appear to swell and are fluffy.
6. Remove dumplings and repeat with remaining batter.
7. Tips.
8. They freeze very well.
