Salmon En croute. What would you serve with it ?

[Dave7]

We would normally have baby boiled spuds and green beans (and enjoy it).
I planned to do the same this time then thought 'there must be other things to go with it'.
What think you.

 

[vickster]

Other veg? Can’t think of any that wouldn’t go except maybe cauli cheese? I wouldn’t personally have potatoes / another carb and pastry

 

[dan_bo]

Chips n dinaclass.

 

[figbat]

Some kind of ratatouille?

 

[Saluki]

I normally go with roasted broccoli, as I can pop it in the oven with the salmon to use the heat. Then some other mixed veg, whatever is in the freezer.

I wouldn‘t choose something wet with pastry either, or something with a very strong flavour with salmon, but each to their own

you never had pie, chips and gravy?? not even as a child??

what about fresh cream, custard or ice cream with Apple pie??

Another vote for broccoli here, roasted or steamed.

Another vote for roasted broccoli.
For more interest, toss the florets in olive oil, lemon juice, garlic (minced) and salt, then roast them for 25 mins or so until the edges are starting to catch. Once done, sprinkle with grated parmesan.

Potato wise, this Spanish potato and vinegar recipe goes with pretty much everything and is always easy and moreish:

Carrots, potatoes and green beans

Looks good but a lot of work.

Samphire, but most green veg acceptable. you could also roast some carrots whilst you have the oven on, sprinkle a few fennel seeds on before roasting.

 

[newts]

I'd consider a poached egg on bed of spinach.

I usually do parmentier or dauphinoise potatoes (well, cook up the M&S ones!). The older daughter likes sweet potato which could also work.

A few bit of samphire inside the pastry might be good.
