Put the flour, salt and nutmeg in a bowl.
Add the eggs and half the water. Mix everything together.
Add the rest of the water bit by bit and mix until the batter is thick.
Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil.
Use the spaetzle grater, or a colander, or a flat grater to drip bits of batter into the water.
It will puff up slightly and cook immediately. Scoop it out and place it in the already prepared sauce.
If you are using speck, sauté it in a little olive oil until it is cooked. Boil the peas in salted water.
Drain the peas. Drain the speck on a paper-towel to remove the oil.
Gently heat the cream (but don't let it boil). Add the speck (or cubed ham) and peas. Don't add salt as the sauce will already be salty enough.
