Ingredients

10 servings

•

3 cups all-purpose flour
•

2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
•

2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
•

1 ½ tablespoons garlic salt
•

1 tablespoon ground black pepper
•

4 eggs
•

5 cups water, divided

•

1 teaspoon salt
•

½ cup butter
•

¾ cup brown sugar
•

2 cloves garlic, minced, or more to taste
•

1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
•

2 (13 ounce) packages kielbasa sausage, sliced into bite-size pieces

Instructions

Mix flour, basil, parsley, garlic salt, and pepper together in a large bowl, and make a well in the center of the mixture.
Whisk eggs and 1 cup water together in a medium bowl. Pour into the well in the flour. Stir until well combined; spaetzle dough will be thick and sticky.
Bring remaining 4 cups water to a boil in a pot over high heat; add salt.
Meanwhile, place spaetzle dough onto a cutting board. Slice off tiny dollops of dough, about the size of a pretzel stick, using a sharp knife. Drop into boiling water and cook until they float to the top of the pot, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer dollops to a bowl using a slotted spoon. Set aside.
Melt butter in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add brown sugar, garlic, and cayenne and stir until sugar is melted, about 1 minute. Add kielbasa and cooked spaetzle to butter mixture; stir over medium-high heat until kielbasa is warmed, 4 to 5 minutes.
