400 g all-purpose flour4 large eggs5 g salt (for dough)5 g salt (for boiling water)50 g butter30 g powdered sugar (optional)200 g sour cream (optional)

Steps

Prepare the Dough

In a large bowl, mix the flour with salt. Crack in 4 eggs, then knead into a firm dough. If necessary, add 1-2 tablespoons of water. Cover and let it rest for 10 minutes.

Roll and Cut Noodles

On a floured surface, roll out the dough thinly, about 1-2 mm thick. Let it dry slightly, then roll it up and cut into thin strips or squares. Separate the noodles and let them dry further for 10-15 minutes.

Boil and Sauté

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the noodles and cook for 3-5 minutes until al dente. Drain thoroughly. In a pan, melt the butter over medium heat, then add the cooked noodles and sauté until golden brown for 5-7 minutes, stirring constantly.

Serve

Serve immediately, optionally with powdered sugar, sour cream, or even jam.

Extra Tips

► If the dough is too stiff, add a little water; if too soft, add more flour.

► When rolling out the dough, use plenty of flour to prevent sticking.

► For a sweet twist, try serving with a dollop of jam or a sprinkle of cocoa powder.
