A Bit on the Side

Often we want something different to enhance or complement flavours of main course dishes. The recipes in this book are a selection of popular side dishes to go with meat, poultry or seafood. They can also be eaten on their own as a vegetarian-style antipasto or snacks. All the recipes feature fresh ingredients like extra-virgin olive oil, garlic, fresh herbs and chilli – used in recipes such as tahini and garlic sauce, seeded mustard with fresh herbs, tabbouli and tandoori marinade. There are condiments and dishes from many different cuisines.
