Ingredients

2 large cucumber
0.5 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons fresh dill
1 tablespoon white vinegar
1 teaspoon granulated sugar
0.5 teaspoon salt
0.25 teaspoon black pepper
0.25 small red onion

Directions

Step 1

Wash the cucumbers thoroughly and use a vegetable peeler to remove strips of the skin for a decorative look, if desired.

Step 2

Slice the cucumbers thinly using a sharp knife or mandolin slicer. Place the slices in a large bowl.

Step 3

Thinly slice the red onion and add it to the bowl with the cucumber slices.

Step 4

In a separate small mixing bowl, whisk together the sour cream, fresh dill, white vinegar, granulated sugar, salt, and black pepper until creamy and well-combined.

Step 5

Pour the creamy dressing over the cucumber and onion mixture. Gently toss everything together until evenly coated.

Step 6

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 7

Serve chilled as a refreshing side dish with your favorite main course.
