Step-by-Step Instructions
1
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, eggs, and milk until a smooth batter forms. Let the batter rest for 10-15 minutes to allow the flour to absorb the liquid.
2
Heat a large pot of salted water over high heat and bring to a boil. Using a spaetzle press or a colander, press the batter into the boiling water in a steady stream, cutting the noodles off into 1-inch lengths as they cook.
3
Cook the spaetzle for 2-3 minutes, or until they float to the surface. Remove the spaetzle from the water with a slotted spoon and drain off any excess water.
4
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and cook for 20-25 minutes, or until they are caramelized and golden brown.
5
In a large serving dish, combine the cooked spaetzle, caramelized onions, and grated Gruyère cheese. Toss until the cheese is melted and the spaetzle is well coated.
