Number Of Ingredients 5

4 cups all-purpose flour
Coarse salt
4 large eggs
1/2 teaspoon olive oil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, whisk together flour and 2 teaspoons salt. Make a well in the center; crack eggs into center well. Using a fork, beat eggs; gradually add flour to eggs until fully combined and a dry, shaggy dough forms. Add 3/4 cup water and stir with a wooden spoon until a rough, very sticky dough forms. If dough seems too dry, add 1 to 2 tablespoons additional water as necessary.
  • Bring a medium saucepan of salted water to a boil; add olive oil. Working with about 1/2 cup dough at a time, press dough through a spaetzle maker or a large-holed colander, set about 3 inches from water, into boiling water. Cook until nokedli float to top, about 2 minutes. Transfer cooked nokedli to a warm serving bowl. Toss with butter and season with salt. Serve.

Not bad, but I've had better.

I'm a big fan of nokedli, and this recipe did not disappoint. The dumplings were perfectly cooked, and the sauce was rich and flavorful. I especially liked the addition of the paprika, which gave the dish a nice smoky flavor.

The nokedli were a bit dense for my taste, but the sauce was delicious. I think I would try a different recipe next time.

This nokedli recipe was fantastic! The dumplings were light and fluffy, and the sauce was flavorful and creamy. I followed the recipe exactly, and it turned out perfectly. My family loved it, and I will definitely be making it again.
