Peter's Käsespätzle

I'm visiting my uncle in Germany right now and today he showed me how to make his version of Käsespätzle or spätzle with cheese! Spätzle are a kind of egg noodle from southwest Germany. This is a really popular way to prepare them.
You can use packaged spätzle (should be easily available in US, too, in international sections or shops), or make your own - I have a recipe in my profile if you search :)

Steps

Dice onions. In a big frying pan, melt the schmalz or butter. Add onions and cook on low-medium heat until very soft and golden, 10-15 minutes. You want them really sweet.
- 2
Add paprika, mix and continue to cook a few minutes on low.

Meanwhile cook up the spätzle according to package instructions or even better, make homemade! My uncle used the packages ones from the store.
- 4
Butter up a large Dutch oven or oven safe dish. Preheat oven to 100C/210F.
- 5
Drain spätzle when done.
- 6
Put a third of the spätzle on the bottom of the pot, and top with a third of the onions...
- 7
Top that with a third of the cheese.
- 8
Repeat two more times: spätzle, onions, cheese. Spätzle, onions cheese. Sprinkle some more paprika on top.
- 9
Put in oven at 100C/210F for 10 minutes or until cheese is melted.
- 10
Done! Dig in! Good with a green salad.
