| 1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add about 1 tsp salt. | 2. While water is coming up to boil, make batter. Whisk the quark and eggs together in a large bowl. Mix in the salt and nutmeg. Gently stir in the flour until smooth (start with 1 1/2 cups and add more if necessary - batter should be fairly wet). | 3. Working with half of the batter at a time, push the batter through the holes of a colander (or spätzle maker) into the boiling water. | 4. Stir and cook until the water returns to a simmer, about 45 seconds to 1 minute. | 5. Using a skimmer or a large slotted spoon, transfer the spätzle to another colander. Run cold water over them to stop the cooking. Set aside and once the water has returned to a boil, repeat with the rest of the dough. | 6. Heat a large cast-iron or non-stick skillet over medium heat. | 7. Add butter, melt, and then add the onions. | 8. Cook, stirring occasionally, about 5-8 minutes. | 9. Add the garlic and cook another 2 minutes. | 10. Raise the heat to medium-high and add the spätzle. | 11. Fry, stirring frequently, until the spätzle begin to turn golden, about 10 minutes. | 12. Season with more fresh grated nutmeg and black pepper, to taste. | 13. Remove pan from heat and add the cheese, stirring until cheese is melted. Serve immediately. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
