Bündner Eiertatsch

A simple, country-style Alpine meal
for young and old

Ingredients

(for 4 portions)

4 eggs
3 dl diluted milk (1/2 milk, 1/2 water)
1/2 teaspoon salt
250 g flour
200 g genuine Bündnerfleisch, raw ham or another Grisons speciality meat such as air-cured bacon, salami and air-cured sausage (e.g. Salsiz, Grisetti, Grischuner)
1 onion
2 tablespoons butter
Stewed apples or pears

Method

(Preparation time: 1 hour, recipe takes: approx. 30 minutes)

• Beat the eggs with the diluted milk. Add salt, sieve the flour into the liquid and mix to form a smooth dough. Allow to stand for 30 minutes.
• Finely dice the Bündnerfleisch or one of the other Grisons specialities. Chop the onions and steam the two in a non-stick frying pan in heated butter, then add the dough. Once it has begun to thicken, separate with two spatulas and prod until the whole mixture has thickened and is of the correct consistency.
• Put onto a pre-heated plate and serve with stewed apples or pears.
• nstead of Grisons speciality meats, this dish can also be made with any kind of fresh fruit or with jam. This makes it particularly suitable for children.
