Cucumber Salad with Sour Cream

When my grandmother made this she would
pick fresh cucumbers from the garden,
slice them and salt them, let them sit for 1/2 hour to drain,
rinse them and add some thinly sliced white onion.
She would put them into a large bowl and add vinegar
and sour cream and stir it all up - no measuring.


Ingredients:
1 cucumber peeled and thinly sliced
salt
2 tablespoons vinegar
1 taablespoon superfine sugar (optional)
4 tablespoons sour cream
fresh dill

Directions:
Sprinkle the cucumber with plenty of salt
and leave to drain in a colander for at least
1/2 hour until it softens and loses it's juices.
Then rinse in cold water and drain.
Mix the vinegar with
the sugar, dill and sour cream
and pour over the cucumber slices.
Mix well.
