Spatzle can be used in place of potatoes or rice, and makes a wonderful companion to pork and sauerkraut.

2 large eggs, beaten

1/2 cup milk

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg

2 tablespoons butter

1. Combine eggs and milk; stir in flour, salt and nutmeg, beating until smooth.
2. Drop dough by teaspoonfuls into large pot of boiling water (or pass through a colander). Cook 2 to 3 minutes.
3. Drain and toss with the butter, or melt butter in skillet and gently fry spatzle until browned, about 3 to 4 minutes.

Serves 4 to 6.
