1. First of all, peel the onion, cut it at random and fill it with cold water so that it covers the pieces.
2. Put the saucepan on the stove, let the onion boil and bring it to readiness over low heat. At the same time, the onion will acquire a pleasant spicy aroma and become transparent. Let's add some vegetable oil.
3. Drain the water, cool the onion slightly and interrupt with a blender in mashed potatoes.
4. The next step is to add the second main ingredient: sour cream. We put it directly into the blender bowl, adding salt and black pepper. A few seconds and we have a uniform base for the onion-sour cream sauce.
5. In order for the sauce to become a sauce, move the sour cream and onion mixture into a saucepan or small saucepan and put on fire.

It also goes well with baked or boiled potatoes and other vegetables. And most importantly, even children who will hardly guess about its main secret component will love it!
