We made this yesterday and it was a great success with our daughter. It’s really easy to make, if you have access to store bought Spaetzle. If you don’t, there are numerous recipes to make them yourself

Ingredients:

  • 2 onions
  • 1 clove of garlic
  • 400 g cherry tomatoes
  • 100 g baby spinach
  • 500 g of Spätzle
  • Salt
  • 4 tbsp olive oil
  • Pepper
  • 0.5 tbsp sugar
  • 200 g sour cream
  • 30 g Parmesan (grated)

Directions:

Peel the onions, halve them and cut them into strips. Peel the garlic and cut them into slices. Wash and halve the tomatoes. Wash the spinach and shake dry. Prepare the spaetzle in hot salted water according to the instructions on the packet. Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large pan. Fry the onions and garlic until translucent, add 300 g of the tomatoes and fry briefly. Season with salt, pepper and sugar. Stir in the sour cream and Parmesan. Drain the spaetzle, let it drain and mix it with the spinach into the tomatoes. Allow the spinach to wilt slightly. Season with salt and pepper and serve sprinkled with the remaining tomatoes.

    This sounds great with the hungarian version of spätzle (nokedli) as well, I think it’s just a different shape. Thanks for translating & sharing!

      While I agree with the sentiment, I fully endorse store bought for anyone who has kids and too little time as is.
