Roggen Spätzle

Ingredients

• 500 g rye flour
• 4 eggs
• 1 tsp salt
• water
• 1 tbsp cooking oil
• boiling salted water
• 50 g butter

Instructions

1. 1.

   First sift the rye flour into a bowl and make a well in the center. Beat the eggs with salt, water and cooking oil, pour some of it into the well and stir from the center with the flour. Gradually add the remaining liquid and beat the dough with a spoon until it starts to bubble.

2. 2.

   Then divide the dough by hand or through a coarse sieve into portions and drop them into boiling salted water. Bring to a boil, let cook (the spätzle will float to the surface), then bring to a second boil. Drain on a colander and rinse with cold water.

3. 3.

   Finally brown the butter and toss the spätzle in it.
