About this category

When you drop the usual starchy sides, the plate can feel empty at first. This page fills that gap with vegetables prepared in ways that give them weight and flavor. Cauliflower mash with butter replaces mashed potatoes, while celeriac fries, rutabaga fries and kohlrabi fries from the oven cover the crispy side of things.

Green vegetables shine when they get some fat. Brussels sprouts with bacon and walnuts, green beans with bacon and savory and creamed spinach with nutmeg all pair well with a simple steak or roast chicken. For a more German table, sauerkraut with caraway and bacon or creamed savoy cabbage go well with pork, and potato salad made with kohlrabi brings back a classic.

Root vegetables like celeriac and rutabaga carry more carbs than leafy greens, so balance them against the rest of your meal. Cut fries evenly and do not crowd the baking sheet, otherwise they steam instead of browning. Most sides keep for a few days, which makes it easy to cook one or two at the start of the week and pair them with different mains.
