Comment préparer Bacon Onion Spaetzle

In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg.
In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 large eggs and 1 cup milk.
Gradually add the egg mixture to the dry ingredients, whisking until a smooth batter forms. Let the batter rest for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator).
Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Using a spaetzle maker or a slotted spoon, press or drop spoonfuls of batter into the boiling water.
Cook for about 1-2 minutes, or until the spaetzle float to the surface. Immediately transfer the cooked spaetzle to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
Once cooled, drain the spaetzle thoroughly and set aside.
In a large skillet, cook 4 slices bacon over medium heat until golden brown and crispy, about 4-5 minutes. Remove bacon with a slotted spoon and set aside, reserving 2 tablespoons of bacon fat in the skillet.
Add 1 medium onion, thinly sliced, to the skillet with the bacon fat. Cook until softened and caramelized, about 4-5 minutes.
In a clean skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of butter or oil over medium heat. Add the drained spaetzle and sauté until lightly golden and crispy, about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add the cooked bacon and caramelized onions to the spaetzle. Season generously with salt and pepper to taste.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving. Optional: Add a sprinkle of grated Gruyère or raclette cheese for an authentic Alpine touch.
