Mix flour, eggs, water, and salt carefully to get a dough; it should neither be stiff nor too soft.
Pass the dough through a special press for dumplings into boiling, salted water. 
Boil the small dumplings for about 3 minutes, then drain and rinse them with cold water.
Melt the butter in a pan, add the dumplings, and season them with salt and pepper. 
Gradually add the grated cheese and stir vigorously. 
When all of the cheese has melted, heat butter in another pan, add the onion rings, and fry them until they become golden brown. 
Top the dumplings with the onion rings and chives.
