Directions:
1. Prepare spaetzel: Combine the dry ingredients (add a bit of nutmeg to taste if doing it for German Cooking, omit if for Hungarian) 2. Add the milk and egg and mix together into a batter of sorts. 3. Meanwhile, have a wide pan of water with salt boiling. 4. Take the batter and put it into a spaetzle maker, or I used a French fry basket, and rubbed it with the bottom of a spatula to break it up. 5. When the Spaetzle float, remove with a slotted spoon and put them into a colander. 6. Fry onion in a little oil until very brown and crispy.Set aside. 7. In heavy (preferably non-stick) skillet, heat spaetzle in a little butter. 8. Grate cheese and toss into spaetzle. 9. When cheese melts, transfer to large bowl and sprinkle with onion. 10.
