03 — Method

Mix the flour, salt and nutmeg in a bowl.
Make a well, add the eggs and milk, and beat until you have a thick, elastic batter.
Let rest in the fridge for 30 minutes.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
Using a spaetzle maker (or a board and knife), drop small bits of batter into the simmering water.
The spaetzle float to the surface when cooked (2 to 3 minutes).
Lift out with a slotted spoon and rinse under cold water.
Brown the onions in butter, add the spaetzle and let them color.
Transfer to a baking dish and cover with sliced Munster.
Bake for 5 minutes at 200°C (400°F) until the cheese has melted.
