Then stir  the potatoes and dill and pour the stock into the pot. Heat the mixture to boiling, reduce the heat and simmer gently without a lid for at least 30 minutes or until the potatoes are soft. An hour is even better.  some of the potatoes in the soup with a potato masher to thicken it and taste for salt and pepper.
