An Easy Meal for a Warm Summer Day: Cucumber Dill Soup

Prepare:

Pour two tablespoons of olive oil into a bowl, then add the quartered red and white onions and sauté until the onions turn golden. Add the peeled and quartered potatoes and the cucumbers cut into thick slices, add salt and pepper and cook for about 10 minutes. Pour in water so that it covers one-third of the vegetables. Cook everything until the potatoes are soft. Remove from the heat and chop with a stick blender. Return to the stove and when it boils add the dried dill and cook for a minute or two to infuse the flavor. Remove from the heat and add the sour cream and, if desired, fresh chopped mint. The soup can be served hot or cold. It is a light meal for a warm summer day.
