Potatoes With Paprika

• 6 or 8 large potatoes
• 2 or 3 onions
• 1 gill of sour cream

Cook the finely chopped onions in the fat to a golden colour, but without browning. Mix in the paprika and add the potatoes, peeled and cut in small dice. Season with salt, and simmer gently, adding hot water from time to time till the potatoes are tender, but not too soft. Add the sour cream a few minutes before serving.
