Apple Spaetzle

Step 1

A spaetzle dough is made from flour, eggs, salt and water - either traditionally by beating in the bowl with a wooden spoon (like bodybuilding) or with a mixer. This is left to rest for about 10 minutes.

Step 2

Bring salted water to the boil in a large pot (water level up to approx. 2 cm below the edge of the pot) and add the spaetzle. This is done either by scraping the board, pressing through a press, scraping through a perforated sheet or as you wish. When the spaetzle are cooked (i.e. when they swim up), you take them out of the water with a slotted spoon and place them in a colander to drain.

Step 3

Tip: always add the spaetzle to the boiling water in portions and then skim it off, otherwise the freshly pickled dough and the finished spaetzle will stick together to form a large lump. If you don`t feel like doing this, you can buy a bag of spaetzle, cook it according to the instructions on the pack and pour it off.

Step 4

The apples are peeled, cored and cut into small pieces (I always make eighths and cut them again into 3 - 4 pieces). Then you heat the butter in a pan and add the apple pieces to sear them a little and then let them soften over a low flame. As soon as the apples are soft, add the spaetzle and heat it up again. Then you put sugar on it (you can also fry it a bit and maybe let it caramelize) and serve the apple spaetzle.

Step 5

The potty with cinnamon sugar should not be missing on the table.
