- Brynza cheese will give you the "authentic" flavor, but you can use other soft cheeses like feta, cottage cheese, maybe even goat cheese. I used a mild cottage that's available where I live in Japan. Block bacon works great since you can cube it :)
- Grate the potatoes and place in a bowl.
- Mix flour and salt with potatoes until you get a thick, sticky dough.
- It should easily stick to your spatula or spoon. If not, add a few more tablespoons flour until it does.
- Chop bacon into small cubes and fry in 1/2 Tablespoon oil on low heat until crisp and brown. Meanwhile bring a large pot of water to a boil and add some salt to it.
- Test a small spoonful of the halusky mix in the boiling water. It should cook into a soft dumpling in 3-4 minutes. If the mix seem like it's not holding together, add more flour to thicken.
- The traditional way to make the halusky is to put the batter on a cutting board and cut small dumplings (about 1 x 2 cm) directly into the boiling water. If you have a special halusky (or spaetzle) sieve or press, you can use that too.
- Drip several halusky dumplings in at a time. They will sink to the bottom so give them a quick stir.
- Cook halusky until they float to the top and have changed color. Strain out with a slotted spoon, hand strainer and place into a colander to drain. Repeat the boiling process until all the batter is cooked.
- Once all halusky are cooked, let drain for 2-3 minutes minutes.
- Transfer to a large bowl and mix with the cheese until evenly coated. If you like it extra creamy, mix in some whipping or heavy cream.
- Divide halusky onto plates and top with the fried bacon!
