Amerikansches Käsespätzle [  ][  ][  ][ Posted by pagercub.]
- 420 g all-purpose flour (about 3 cups)
- 2 g ground nutmeg (1 tsp)
- 5 g salt (1.5 tsp)
- 0.3 g pepper (1/2 tsp)
- 3 eggs
- 230 ml milk (1 c)
- 45 g butter (1 Tbsp)
- 1 onion, sliced
- 1 tbsp capers, drained
- 2 tbsp fresh chopped parsley
- 250 g (1/2 lb) cooked, cubed beef
- 350 g shredded cheddar cheese
- 100 g shredded mozarella
- Preheat oven to 400˚F.
- Sift together flour, nutmeg, salt and pepper into bowl. Beat eggs and milk together in a separate bowl or container, and add to the dry mix. A very stiff dough will form.
- Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add cubed beef to reheat and brown. Remove beef, leave fat in pan. Add onion, and cook until golden.
- Meanwhile, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Press batter through a spaetzle press into the water. You may also use a potato ricer, colander, or a cheese grater. When the spaetzle has floated to the top of the water, remove it to a bowl with a slotted spoon.
- Combine and mix spaetzle, herbs, cheddar cheese, meat, and capers. Spread evenly into oven-proof dish and top with shredded mozzarella. Place dish in preheated oven until cheese is melted and bubbly, perhaps even slightly brown. About 10 mins. IT’s ready to serve!
