Description
Spatzle (or spaetlze, as it is often spelled), is a supremely easy type of pasta to make at home, without the usual fuss of rolling out the dough and cutting into shapes with a pasta machine or pastry wheel. Instead, the dough is simply grated with a box grated (or pressed through a sieve) directly into the pot and boiled until the little noodles float to the top. Here, the cooked spätzle are sautéed with butter, diced bacon, and three types of cheese, to delicious effect.

This one is labor intensive making your own rice/noodles, but it's well worth all the effort. The end dish is supposed to be a side, but I slapped a piece of chicken with it and it’s a meal. It’s fabulous.
