Spread the love

Ingredients for 2 servings:

  • 1 point spinach, small (frozen cream spinach)
  • 1 egg(s)
  • Flour (spaetzle flour or double-grain flour)
  • Salt
  • 1 small onion(s)
  • 150 g ham
  • ¼ liter cream
  • 150 g cheese (Gorgonzola)
  • pepper

Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Total time approx. 30 minutes

Spätzle: Thaw the spinach, season with salt, add 1 egg, and add enough flour to form a relatively firm dough (but it should still be easy to stir with a wooden spoon). Add the spätzle to boiling salted water, let it foam briefly, and then remove with a slotted spoon. Sauce: Cut the ham into small cubes. Finely chop the onion, fry until golden, add the ham, and fry until browned. Pour in the cream, add the shredded Gorgonzola, and season with pepper. If the sauce is too thin, dissolve some flour or cornstarch in cold water and add it. For vegetarians, simply omit the ham; it tastes great too.
