Step 1

In a large bowl combine flour, eggs, and ground nutmeg. Beat with a hand mixer and slowly pour water into the batter. Continue to beat until the batter has a thick and sticky consistency.

Step 2

Cover the bowl with a towel and rest in the fridge for 15 minutes.

Step 3

Fill a large pot with water and bring to a boil. Add a tablespoon of salt.

Step 4

Place the spaetzle maker on top of the pot. Wet the scraper.

Step 5

Pour a little bit of the batter on top of the spaetzle maker. Use the scraper to push the batter through the holes of the spaetzle maker into the simmering water.

Step 6

Cook until the spaetzle rise to the top. About 2-3 minutes. Use a slotted spoon and transfer the cooked spaetzle into an empty bowl. Repeat until you've used up the batter.

Step 7

Melt butter in a large frying pan. Toss the cooked spaetzle in the melted butter and fry for about a minute. Sprinkle with fresh parsley.
