Dill sauce with sour cream is a mild, creamy sauce ready in about 20 minutes. Chopped dill is briefly sautéed, dusted with a tablespoon of all-purpose flour, and covered with broth, then simmered until tender. Wine vinegar and sour cream give it a pleasantly tangy flavor. You can add the sour cream during cooking or spoon it into individual bowls just before serving. All you need is one pot and a few basic ingredients.

Instructions

Tip: tap a step to mark it as done.

  1. Wash the dill and chop it finely. Sauté it lightly, then add the flour.
  2. Cook briefly, then pour in the broth and season with salt. Simmer until the dill is tender, then add the wine vinegar.
  3. Add the sour cream directly to individual bowls just before serving, or stir it into the sauce during cooking along with the vinegar.

Tip: Chop the dill stems very finely and cook them in the sauce, then add the delicate fronds at the end so they stay green and fragrant. Out of season, you can use frozen dill instead of fresh.
