Kräuter-Spätzle mit Pilzrahm (Druckversion)

Luftige deutsche Spätzle mit frischen Kräutern, serviert in einer reichhaltigen, cremigen Pilzsoße - ein traditioneller Gaumenschmaus.

# Zutaten:

→ Spaetzle

01 - 2 cups all-purpose flour
02 - 3 large eggs
03 - 1/2 cup milk
04 - 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh herbs (parsley, chives, thyme)
05 - 1 teaspoon salt
06 - 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

→ Mushroom Cream Sauce

07 - 2 cups sliced mushrooms (cremini or button)
08 - 1 tablespoon olive oil
09 - 1 tablespoon butter
10 - 1 small onion, finely chopped
11 - 2 cloves garlic, minced
12 - 1 cup heavy cream
13 - Salt and pepper to taste
14 - Fresh parsley for garnish

# Anleitung:

01 - In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, eggs, milk, chopped herbs, salt, and nutmeg. Mix until a smooth batter forms. Let it rest for 10 minutes.
02 - Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Using a spaetzle maker or a colander, drop the batter into the boiling water in small portions. Cook until the spaetzle float to the surface, about 2-3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.
03 - In a large skillet, heat olive oil and butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, sautéing until softened.
04 - Add the sliced mushrooms and cook until browned. Pour in the heavy cream and simmer for 5 minutes, allowing it to thicken. Season with salt and pepper.
05 - Stir the cooked spaetzle into the mushroom cream sauce, mixing well to coat. Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley.

# Hinweise:

01 - For a lighter version, substitute heavy cream with half-and-half.
02 - Serve with a side salad or steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
03 - A glass of Riesling pairs beautifully with this dish.
