Sour cream sauce
Description
Homemade sauce is easy and quick to prepare. Sour cream sauce can be taken along on a picnic or outdoor trip, and served with shashlik, grilled meat, poultry, fish, etc.—it's versatile. To make it more filling, add boiled chicken eggs. Cilantro adds a particularly bright flavor, if you enjoy that herb in your sauce. You may use dried ground garlic instead—it's less pungent. The sauce is best prepared right before serving, though it can be stored in the refrigerator for several days.
