Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Mix together the flour, eggs, salt and milk into a rough and very thick batter. Don't over mix - if you can see a little flour, that's okay. If the batter seems very wet, add another teaspoon of flour.
  2. Bring a very large pot of water to the boil.
  3. Use the spaetzle maker, colander, or other method to force the batter into the boiling water. Don't do more than enough to make a single layer on top of the water.
  4. The noodles will rise to the top. They need only about ten seconds, after which they are scooped out with a slotted spoon and put in a large bowl.
  5. Each layer of noodles should be sprinkled, liberally, with the grated cheese.
  6. Continue with the drop noodles, layer by layer, until you've gone through all the batter.
  7. Cover the last layer with what remains of the cheese.
  8. Cover the whole bowl with aluminum foil and put in the oven on the lowest setting to keep warm.
  9. Melt butter in a large, heavy skillet.
  10. When it's very hot, add the onions. Lower heat to medium low, and let the onions cook until they are crisp and brown.
  11. Remove the bowl of cheese drop noodles from the oven and pour the buttery, crisp onions over the top.
  12. Note that you can increase or decrease this recipe by using this formula: per serving, 1 egg, 100 grams flour, and 1/8 liter milk, with additional cheese to taste.
