Instructions

  1. Peel and halve the cucumbers and scrape out the stones with a spoon. Test the ends of the cucumber for bitterness. Then cut into strips approx. 3 mm wide. Peel the red onion and cut into fine cubes.
  2. Heat the rapeseed oil in a coated pan. First add the onion pieces and fry for about 3 minutes. Then add the cucumbers and the water and cover. Let simmer for about 5 minutes.
  3. In the meantime, check whether there is any liquid left in the pan. The cucumbers shouldn`t take on any color, they should turn glassy.
  4. Add 3 tablespoons of cream cheese and mustard and stir well. Then season with salt, vegetable stock, pepper, dill and paprika powder. I usually take a little more mustard, please approach carefully.
  5. The stewed cucumbers go well with fish fillets and potatoes.
