  • 4 eggs
  • 250 g quark
  • 150 g creamed spinach, frozen but thawed
  • 1 tsp salt
  • some pepper
  • 150 g Gouda, grated
  • 5 liters of salt water

Instructions

Working time approx. 20 minutes; Rest time approx. 10 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 30 minutes; Total time approx. 1 hour

Whisk the thawed creamed spinach together with the flour, eggs, quark, salt, and pepper to form a dough. Let it rest for 10 minutes, then whisk again. Bring about 4-5 liters of salted water to a boil in a pot. Form spaetzle from the dough using a press or the Tupperware Spätzleria and add them to the cooking water in batches. As soon as the spaetzle float to the top, scoop them out with a slotted spoon and place them in a greased baking dish. Once all the dough is used up, sprinkle the grated Gouda cheese over the spaetzle and bake at 190°C for about 20 minutes.
