Ingredients
- 3 cups flour
- 4 eggs
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1 cup water (or more)
- 8 oz. gruyere (Emmental or similar cheese), grated
- 2 medium onions , thinly sliced
Instructions
- Sift the flour into a bowl. Add salt.
- In another bowl, beat the eggs and 1 cup (250ml) of water.
- Add eggs to flour. Mix well to form a thick dough. If the dough is not thin enough to go through the holes in the ladle or colander, add a little water until reaching the right texture.
- Set aside for twenty minutes.
- Meanwhile, fry the onions in a lightly oiled pan. Stir regularly until onions are caramelized, about 15 to 20 minutes.
- Bring water to a boil in a large pot. Add a tablespoon of salt.
- When the water is boiling, push the dough through the holes of a slotted spoon or colander. The dough should fall like "thick rain" and form tiny oblong balls.
- The pasta is ready when it floats back to the surface after one to two minutes.
- Immediately drain the pasta in a colander.
- Put the pasta in a bowl and add the cheese. Stir so that the cheese melts.
- Serve in individual bowls and garnish with the caramelized onions.
