What would you serve with Boeuf Bourgignon ?

[WildRosie]

I'm having this for dinner layer this week and I've decided on mixed vegetables and...Yorkshire puddings. Now, this might sound strange or sacrilegious but BB is essentially a beef casserole so YPs are, in my opinion, a reasonable accompaniment.

Is there a more traditional side dish for BB?
What would you have ?

I really like Boulanger potatoes and green beans! It's not as creamy as dauphinois potato but I prefer it.

Bourguignon is traditionally served with steamed or boiled potatoes, but we eat with mash. You could try buttered noodles or rice. Or if you are feeling non traditional Potatoes Boulangeres.

Potatoes boulangere

Mash and green beans traditionally but have what you want. Life's too short.

There's a great recipe on the BBC site (I think it's Rachel Khoo) for BB with dumplings made by soaking baguette in milk. They are AMAZING. So that's what I'd have. And tenderstem brocoli.

A few new potatoes, green beans and crusty bread

Mash and green veg.

I quite like it with skinny fries and my new favourite oven roasted broccoli.

I had it with fries in France it was absolutely delicious!

Dumplings.

We had it today with dumplings, roast carrot and cabbage

Garlic bread

Rice and tender stem broccoli

Potato and celeriac mash. Yummy

Mash and green veg of some kind.
New potatoes and tender stem broccoli.
Left overs in a bowl with crusty bread or on top of a jacket potato.

Did have it with rice once when I'd asked DH to get some batch cooked curry out of the freezer to defrost for dinner, put rice on, went to warm the defrosted 'curry' only to realise it was BB, had it with some steamed veg and the rice and it was actually quite nice. I think anything too creamy would be overkill, but although very buttery, good hasselback potatoes could probably work again with green veg to cut through it all

Great with colcannon, especially with spring cabbage being in season right now.
Also good with crushed butter beans.

M always serve Dauphinois, green beans and roasted Carrots.

Parmesan mash sounds tempting too.

Anyone craving Boeuf Bourgignon now?

I'd welcome a recipe.

I'm afraid I can't help with a recipe, speakout, as mine is from the supermarket. As are the Yorkshire puddings! I expect there's umpteen recipes out there, hopefully not all of which call for actual red Burgundy, which can be pricey.

We usually have this with green veg and rice

I usually do scalloped potatoes with it. Or crusty homemade bread.

Mash made with loads of cream and butter.
Green beans.

This is the recipe I use @speakout

As various potato dishes are being mentioned, how about roast potatoes ? If I'm going down the YP route I may as well continue in a similar vein!

By the way, I'm cheating with the vegetables too. It's a mix of broccoli, sweetcorn, carrot and green beans, courtesy of Waitrose. Microwave in the bag for four minutes and done.

And an cheat one if you want quick and easy!
