As the title says what is your favourite salad/side to eat along side the sausages and steak!

(looking for new ideas as the extra are my favourite bit!!!)

Giant couscous with roasted veg, feta & pomegranate seeds.

Spanish tortilla.

BobbyBiscuits · 19/05/2024 09:55

I'd make a tzatziki dip. Yogurt with garlic, Cucumber and mint. Also maybe babaghanoush. Using roasted aubergines, garlic and tahini.
I might bring some veg kebabs too for the grill. with peppers, courgettes, onions, mushrooms etc. I love a good BBQ.
Potato salad as well obviously but I'm sure you've thought of that!

weebarra · 19/05/2024 09:56

Chickpea and chorizo salad and a feta and sweetcorn salad.
And some nice beers!

Enko · 19/05/2024 09:57

Water melon feta and mint salad. I often find there is not a lot of fresh stuff at bbq and this really helps.

Unmooved · 19/05/2024 09:58

A potato salad of my homegrown veg + a SA friend’s recipe

I could eat a whole bowl of this + never miss burgers sausages or whatever’s on the bbq Grin

Homemade coleslaw

Please would you mind sharing your recipe?

GETTINGLIKEMYMOTHER · 19/05/2024 10:02

Ditto to homemade coleslaw - white cabbage, onion, carrot, celery, apple - and not swimming in mayonnaise, just enough to bind it.
It invariably disappears.

Growlybear83 · 19/05/2024 10:03

Potato wedges, with loads of grated cheese and salsa mixed in, covered in sour cream.

Inextremis · 19/05/2024 10:04

Pesto pasta with Parmesan

RainbowZebraWarrior · 19/05/2024 10:05

Cauliflower cheese (in a large foil tray as it can be warmed though on the barbecue)

Goes well with steak, chicken and sausages.

Almost every 'side' dish people offer at barbecues is cold. It's nice to have a hot side dish.

FlickDrink · 19/05/2024 10:05

Boring but the best would be a Greek salad. Feta, olives, etc.

FlouncingSaffron · 19/05/2024 10:06

If everybody brought what's suggested here so far, it'd be the most delicious range of BBQ additions ever!
(Assume my invitation got lost in the post?)
