Make this recipe a recipe that people in that category can eat. categories: ['dairy_free'], recipe: fill a large saucepan with water, add oil and bring to the boil. sift the flour and salt and make a well in the centre. beat the eggs, and water together adding to the flour and beat until you have a smooth mixture. the dough is then pushed through a spaetzle press into the boiling water. i don't have a spaetzle press but use a potato ricer with a large holed disc and swirl it over the pan of water. this works better than if you hold the ricer still. the spaetzle float to the top when cooked, lift out and drain before placing into a warmed dish. melt the butter and pour over the spaetzle.

Target recipe: sift flour into large bowl, make a depression in the center, and into it break the eggs. add salt, pepper and nutmeg, and 1 cup water, or enough to make a medium batter. beat the batter only until it is smooth. pour the batter into a colander with large holes and let the spaetzle fall directly into a pot of simmering stock. stir gently so that they do not stick together. when the spaetzle rise to the surface they are sufficiently cooked. drain the spaetzle well, put them in a heated vegetable dish, and pour 1/2 cup melted butter over them.
