If you love variations on pasta then you have to try this one! I made this along with yaya's Schnitzel recipe for my family and it was also a hit. I didn't have a spaetzle machine so I tried the colander method which worked fine, but since it's so good I may have to order a spaetzle machine from online. If you make this dish I suggest having a nice German beer with it!

I lived in W Germany for several years and this was one of my favourite dishes! I was delighted to see a recipe for it here, as I have a Spaetzle machine that I have not used for ages!! It was perfect - very easy to make and just as I remember a German friend telling me how it should be done. We ate it with butter and a sprinkling of garlic granules for a very tasty supper dish. A bottle of Gewurztraminer was opened and a good night was had by all two of us! A well written and easy to follow recipe - if you do not have a Spaetzle machine - a sieve will work fine!
