This layered pork and potato bake with sour cream is a dinner that takes just one roasting pan. Sliced potatoes go on the bottom, followed by onions and pork, with an optional extra layer of onions, bacon, and garlic. Another layer of potatoes goes on top, finished with sour cream mixed with dill and tomatoes.

Bake for about an hour at 180 °C (350 °F). This recipe serves six and leaves very few dishes to wash after dinner.

  1. Use one roasting pan to layer and bake all the ingredients. Peel the potatoes and cut them into slices. Grease the pan with oil, line the bottom with half the potatoes, and season with salt and pepper.

  2. Slice the onion and spread it evenly over the potatoes. Arrange the pork on top. If desired, add another layer of onions, bacon, and garlic. If you have marinated the pork, add the marinade as well.

  4. Cover the pan with aluminum foil and bake in a preheated oven at 180 °C (350 °F) for about 1 hour. Meanwhile, mix the sour cream with salt, pepper, dill, and any additional herbs to taste in a bowl. Remove the foil, arrange the tomatoes on top, and pour the sour cream sauce over everything.

  5. Return the pan to the oven for a few minutes and bake until golden brown.

Tip: Cut the pork into slices no thicker than 1 cm and pound them lightly so they become tender along with the potatoes during the hour under foil, rather than staying tough.
