A glorious dish on the way! Side dishes, like this one, have a supportive role but this one is perfect by itself. It could be great with roasted eggplants on the side or chops maybe or even fish. It is seasonal and extremely nutritious. High in the b complex vitamins and magnesium! Please give it a try!
