Not Just Rice and Potatoes: 3 Side Dish Options That Pair Perfectly with Fish

Fried or baked fish is usually served with boiled rice or mashed potatoes.

But there are other products that, when combined with fish, create a truly unforgettable combination.

Vegetables

Vegetables deserve to be mentioned first.

Excellent side dishes for fish include zucchini, eggplant, corn, asparagus, Brussels sprouts or cauliflower, as well as green beans and peas.

You can braise, bake or fry vegetables in Asian style. Alternatively, make a puree or salad out of them.

Couscous

Couscous has a neutral taste, which means it goes well with sea or river fish.

Another advantage of this side dish is that it is easy to prepare – you don’t even have to boil it, you can just steam it with boiling water.

Bulgur

Another type of wheat grain that has a pleasant nutty flavor. Like the listed options, bulgur goes well with fish.

And together with fresh vegetables such as tomatoes, bell peppers, lettuce and spinach, you get the perfect flavor combination.
