A classic German dish featuring crispy fried pork schnitzel served with buttery spaetzle noodles.

Prepare the spaetzle dough by mixing 2 cups of flour, 0.5 teaspoons of salt, 2 eggs, and 0.5 cups of water until smooth. Let it sit for 10 minutes.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Use a spaetzle maker or a colander to drop the dough into the boiling water. Cook until they float, about 2-3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.
In a large pan, melt 3 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the spaetzle and sauté until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Keep warm.
For the schnitzel, pound 4 pork chops to a uniform thickness. Dredge each chop in 1 cup of flour, then dip in 2 beaten eggs, and finally coat in 1 cup of breadcrumbs.
In a separate pan, heat 0.5 cups of oil over medium-high heat. Fry the schnitzels for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden and crispy. Drain on paper towels.
Serve the schnitzel with the buttery spaetzle, garnished with parsley if desired.
