I have something similar to this thing.

With that I make spätzle quite often because it is fast enough to do it on a weeknight. I've seen people do it with a colander, but that seems a bit fiddly... And I don't even want to imagine what you went through with the strainer.

    Yeah... That would of made things so much easier. I used basically something like this https://a.co/d/dBsDis5

    I imagine that must have taken ages to do.

    Took about 2 hours just to make the spaetzle... I will say I took 3 10 minute breaks because of how sore my arm got. Bowl of batter, scoop 1-2 spoon fulls, then squeeze till no more came out. Had to be careful though, because by time about 3 squeezes worth were in the oil the first squeezer worth was already cooked so we then had to alternate squeezing and picking them out with a slotted spatula.

    The recipe I found on the internet was for 10 servings but there was only 3 of us so we I told my girlfriend to cut it in half. Somehow there was a miscommunication and instead of halving it, she doubled it.

    We both loved the final result but agreed to never make it again due to the effort it took.
