Cheesy Spaetzle [Kaesespaetzle]

This german cooking is making me miss germany, a lot. 

YOU NEED

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
 3/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
 3/4 teaspoon salt
 1/8 teaspoon pepper
 3 eggs
 3/8 cup 2% milk
 3 tablespoons butter
 1 onion, sliced
 1 1/2 cups shredded Emmentaler cheese, or cheddar, or swiss, or gruyere, or just a good mix.

TO MAKE:



Sift together flour, nutmeg, salt and pepper
. Beat eggs in a medium bowl.
Alternately mix in milk and the flour mixture until smooth. Let stand for 30 minutes.
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil.
Press batter through a spaetzle press into the water. You may also use a potato ricer, colander, or a cheese grater.
When the spaetzle has floated to the top of the water, remove it to a bowl with a slotted spoon. Mix in 1 cup of the cheese.
Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion, and cook until golden.
Stir in spaetzle and remaining cheese until well blended.
Remove from heat, and serve immediately.
