Step 1
Mix together the flour, semolina, potato or corn starch, salt, baking powder and turmeric in a large bowl.
Step 2
Add the oil and gradually whisk in the milk. Start with 500ml and add the extra 50ml only if needed. The batter should be like a thick pancake batter consistency. Beat it well until bubbles start to form.
Step 3
Heat a large pan of water until boiling. Scoop some of the batter into a spaetzle press and press the spaetzle into the boiling water. If you have one like mine, scoop some of the batter onto the plate and use a scraper to scrape it into the water.
Step 4
Once the spaetzle float to the top they are cooked. Skim them off using a slotted spoon and place in a colander. Rinse briefly with cold water and drain well. Repeat with the rest of the batter.
Step 5
To make the cheese sauce, boil the potato, carrot and cashews until the vegetables are soft.
Step 6
Drain well and place in a blender along with the stock cube, nutritional yeast, salt, mustard, lemon juice, garlic and onion powders, smoked paprika, olive oil and milk and blend until smooth.
