Brewmaster'S Spaetzle - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 eggs
    2 egg yolks
    1 teaspoon sage
    1 pinch nutmeg
    5 ounces beer (Munich Dunkel would be nice)
    1 teaspoon minced garlic
    salt and pepper
    2 cups flour
    olive oil
Preparation
    Saute garlic in oil.
    Mix eggs, yolks, nutmeg, and beer* until blended.
    Stir in the garlic.
    Add flour until a thick batter-like consistency is achieved.
    Boil water in a large pot.
    Push spaetzle through spaetzle maker or colander into boiling water; and simmer for 1-2 minutes.
    Strain spaetzle and spread out on a cookie sheet. Lightly oil and allow to cool.
    When ready to serve, heat olive oil and saute spaetzle until golden brown.
    *Beer choice- preferably a brown ale/lager that isn't too bitter. A continental lager like a Munich Dunkel would be my choice. Though a Bock, Maibock, Oktoberfest, Vienna, or Dark American Lager would work.
