I found a great recipe I want to make, but I need help with what to serve with it.
It’s Baked Leeks with Herbs and Cheese, from Marcella Hazan. It’s leeks mixed with a bechamel sauce with lots of herbs, parmesan cheese and an egg, then layered with creamy cheeses (she suggests a combination of things like soft goat cheese and brie) topped with bread crumbs and baked.
I figure I’d serve a green salad with it, with a non-creamy dressing, but what on earth can I serve my meat-eating family that will go with this dish. I don’t want to overpower the flavor, and I don’t want to give them a richness overdose.
Also, how would I reheat leftovers of this dish?
