I am cooking a meal for friends this evening. It’s not formal but the friends are foodies and always do really good menus. I can’t decide what to go with the main dishes.
I am making roast cod with a herb crust and to go with it a kind of warm salad of cavali nero with sweet potatoes, red cabbage and red onions. I bought some nice taste the difference small potatoes to go with it but now realise two types of potatoes might be too much. My question is, would nice bread be a good accompaniment? There will be some herby sauce from the fish and a tahini dressing from the salad so bread kind of makes sense but I am wondering if that makes it too much like a lunch meal. Rice would maybe be good but hate making it at dinner parties in case it goes wrong.
So, bread, rice or potatoes? Or something else?
