very easy

1.: Mix the flour with 1 teaspoon of salt in a bowl. Add eggs and approx. 200 ml water. Beat everything with a wooden spoon (with a hole) vigorously to form a smooth dough until it bubbles. The dough should flow thickly from the spoon, possibly add some water.
2.: Coarsely grate both types of cheese. Wash the chives, shake dry, cut into rolls. Peel the onions and slice or slice them into thin rings. Heat the lard in a large pan and slowly fry the onions until brown.
3.: Finally, dust with paprika and continue to fry briefly.
4.: Bring the salted water to the boil in a large saucepan. Put the dough in portions in a spaetzle press. Press into the water and cook for 2-3 minutes. Lift out with a slotted spoon and drain in a sieve.
5.: Remove some of the cooking water. Pour half of the cheese into a preheated bowl. Place the hot spaetzle with the removed cooking water on top. Scatter the rest of the cheese on top and mix everything carefully. Season with pepper.
6.: Sprinkle onions and chives over the top and serve immediately.
