Step-by-step cooking

Cooking time: 45 min

Step 1:
In order to cook potatoes stewed in sour cream, prepare the necessary products for this. You will need potatoes (preferably crumbly varieties). You will also need fresh sour cream (good quality, natural), any fat content will do. Take some vegetable oil, salt, fresh herbs to taste and your favorite spices.
Step 2:
Potatoes must be washed, peeled and cut into relatively large pieces. Large enough so that you can comfortably eat.
Step 3:
Heat the vegetable oil in a large frying pan or in a frying pan, put the prepared potatoes in the hot oil and fry them lightly. As you know, and it has been tested more than once, before stewing all the products, it is advisable to lightly fry. So the finished dish will be more delicious and rich.
Step 4:
Pour in water, salt the potatoes and simmer on low heat under the lid until fully cooked (about 20-25 minutes). Potatoes should become completely soft. Now add sour cream, spices to taste (I used asafoetida to give an onion flavor and smoked paprika), mix. Heat it almost to a boil, not allowing the boiling itself. Remove from the heat.
Step 5:
Add clean chopped greens to the finished dish. Stir again and serve.

If you want to preserve the natural taste of potatoes and pure creamy taste, then do not add spices or herbs to the dish. Bright fresh dill and strong spices come to the fore and the creamy taste is somewhat leveled.
Instead of water, you can add vegetable broth.
