- Preparation: 20 min
- Cooking: 20 min
- Makes: 1 serving (316 g)
- Difficulty: Medium
- Diets: Vegetarian, High protein
- Contains: dairy, egg, gluten
Ingredients
- 90 g Flour, all-purpose
- 60 g Eggs, whole, raw
- 30 g Milk, whole
- 1 g Salt
- 60 g Gruyère cheese
- 60 g Onions, raw
- 15 g Butter, unsalted
Method
- Whisk the flour, eggs, milk and salt into a thick, smooth, elastic batter (thicker than a pancake batter, but pourable); let it rest 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, slice the onion thinly and cook it slowly in the butter over low heat for 15-18 minutes, stirring often, until deep golden and sweet.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Press the batter through a spätzle press or coarse-holed colander directly into the water, working in batches.
- Cook the little dumplings for 2-3 minutes until they float and are cooked through, then lift out with a slotted spoon into a warm dish.
- Layer the drained knöpfle with the grated cheese while still hot so it melts between the layers, then top with the caramelized onions and serve at once.
