What's your favourite sides to have with pork belly? I plan on making this pork belly recipe and I'm undecided what to have it with.
A Penfolds Riesling
How about something from Aldi's carefully selected grog shelf?
It's been my experience that European supermarket wine to be superior to much name brand aussie wine
I do like a drop of Brown Brothers occasionally.
mashed potato
That is a big contender.
pickled carrot and onion and cucumber. pertater salad. His Lordship also cares for coleslaw, I do not.
I agree with Your Lordship. Coleslaw goes well with crispy pork.
it's not the combo I object to, it's the concept of coleslaw as a whole.
I like to put a bit of fennel in mine. Delicious
None for me means more for you!
Something in the way of a crispy salad for contrast. A nice kimchi???? Or boiled/steamed chat potatoes with chopped celery & walnuts dressed with lemon juice and a bit of dukkah on top???
Yeah that sounds good. A warm herby lemony baby potato side dish. Mmmmm.
Chinese greens stir fried with soy sauce, chilli and garlic!
Yummmm. This gives me good ideas. Thank you.
