cucumber sauce

Today I found in the pantry an egg-wrapped older (already yellowish) cucumber. It was not rotted, had no bruises, etc., so I thought to throw away too bad.

I then remembered that my grandmother - she had a bigger vegetable garden - often made a cucumber sauce, which always tasted very good to me as a child. I then tried to cook it as much as I remember it. - and? - succeeded!

So here's the recipe:


ingredients

  • 1 cucumber
  • 1 tbsp butter or margarine
  • 1 vegetable soup cube or equivalent amount of powder
  • 1/2 cup of sour cream
  • 2 tablespoons flour
  • Dill herb (fresh or dried)

preparation

  1. Peel and finely chop the cucumber.
  2. Meanwhile melt the butter or margarine.
  3. Add the finely chopped cucumber - crumble the soup cubes and simmer for about 10 minutes.
  4. Sprinkle flour with sour cream and dill and stir to the cucumbers.
  5. Let cook something possibly seasoning. The cucumber sauce is ready.

Cooked potatoes, then it's a vegetarian light meal.

Would also fit with meat dishes or grilled meat. Do I have to try it?

Good succeed!
