It is the potato dish that my grandmother used to make as a child, now I prepare it very often (when I'm not on a diet :) - very simple recipe, it can be eaten as a side dish or as such. My 18-month-old daughter also really liked the good food idea for the children.

Step by step

Step 1

Peel the potatoes, wash them, cut them into cubes. Put the potatoes in a saucepan, pour enough water to cover them well and put them to boil.

Step 2

When it starts to boil, turn down the heat, add the bay leaf and leave for about 30 minutes.

Step 3

About 20 minutes later, when the potatoes are almost cooked, we start making the sour cream sauce.

Peel and chop the onion, pour the oil into a pan, add the onion and lightly fry it.

Step 4

After about 2 minutes, add 2 tablespoons of flour, mix and leave for a few more minutes until the onion is lightly browned.

Step 5

Now add the cream and mix well.

Step 6

Make the small fire under the sour cream sauce boil slowly - during this time drain the juice in which they boiled the potatoes in a deep pan or smaller pan.

Step 7

With this potato soup, dissolve the sour cream sauce a little, if it is too thick. Add a little and mix until you get the desired consistency, that of a liquid cream.
