      Recipe is created for
      TM 5
      If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
      For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.

Recipe's preparation

    Batter
  1. Add all batter ingredients in Closed lid mix sp 4 for 10 seconds or until smooth batter.  Consistancy should be like pancake batter.

     

  2. Have large pot of water boiling on stove with 1 TBS of salt.

     

    Using a Spätzle pan, scrape batter into pan so it makes drops of batter fall into water. 

     

  3. View of drops.

  4. When Spätzle floats, it is cooked. Usually by the time I've finished scraping the batter into the pot and give them a quick stir they are already cooked.  

     

  5. Drain the Spätzle in a Varoma or colander. 

    keep warm in Thermoserver and drizzle with a little olive oil to keep from sticking. 

    Great accompaniment to bolognese or side dish to roast or even fried in frypan with eggs and bacon!

Tip

This recipe is from my Swiss mother. As kids my bother and I would always get excited when we had knoepfli  (Swiss name for Spätzle) now my children get excited when I make it for them... As for the special pan, I got mine from Switzerland so I'm not sure where you could buy one here in Australia sorry!

    OMG!! I have been cooking Goulash for my (hungarian heritage) husband since we were teens and have always served it with mashed potato... Well never again after tonight.  I cooked it through a pot drainer, with dough cutter and worked awesome. Though I think I will have to buy a spatzle utensil as this will be my go to from now on. Love   Edited : Bought a spatzle maker from Amazon, so much easier.

    What is so special about your pan? Is it the grater? I am wondering if I can just use my own pan?

    Great recipe ! Similar to Hungarian recipe called nokedli. 

    You can substitute a colander for the spätzle utensil , otherwise the utensil can be purchased from the Internet.

    i got my utensil in Hungary.
