Asparagus and potatoes are a great pairing but I’m curious what yall like. Also, pretty stoked on the even cooking this strip had last night! Tempering works 💪

Asparagus or sweet corn, Joel Rubichon mashed potatoes, and a decent red wine.

I usually only do 1 side. My top 3 are french fries, baked potato, and raw spinach (super low effort, as you can imagine).

Fondant potatoes, mushrooms, au poivre…as it happens, that was Friday nights menu. Didn’t suck!

Asparagus just don’t hit for me. Prefer Brussels sprouts.
Mashed or smashed potatoes for sure

It’s fairly common, but with all the ways you can customize a loaded baked potato, combined with their relative simplicity (I’ve microwaved mine for years for the initial cook), they are the answer because you can have it just the way YOU like it

I quarter small potatoes and cook them in the skillet after searing the steak. Wait 5-10 minutes, finish the steak on the grill or in the oven and by the time the steak is done cooking and resting, the potatoes are perfect.

1. Cauliflower puree and hard seared mushrooms finished with red wine.
2. Lomo saltado – rice and fries with a bright green sauce and a dark savoury sauce
Usually more steak, or another type of meat, like chicken or pork. If I don’t have additional protein, I go for salad, potatoes, rice or toasted bread.
