Calories 507kcal
Ingredients
- 1 batch homemade Spaetzle
- 2 tablespoons butter unsalted
- 1 medium sweet onion diced
- 8 ounces Swiss cheese grated, ideally Emmental cheese, Gruyere is a good option, too
- 1 ½ cups heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons parsley
Instructions
PREP
- Make one batch of homemade German Spaetzle.
CHEESE SPAETZLE
- Heat butter in a large cast iron-skillet and sauté onions until tender and transluscent. About 5 minutes.
- Add heavy cream and bring to a boil; reduce heat and stir in the cheese. Continue to whisk until the cheese has melted, add parsley, and fold in cooked spaetzle. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- OPTIONAL - For a crispy curst, place the cast iron skillet for 2-3 minutes under the broiler.
Notes
If you live near Aldi's, you might be able to find pre-cooked spaetzle.
CAST IRON SKILLET
If you don't plan on putting the cheese spaetzle under the broiler, you don't need to use a cast iron skillet.Nutrition
