side dishes

This is a perfect side dish (that can be transformed into a dinner casserole), using nearly overripe tomatoes to make a sauce that coats charred, tender-crisp grilled cabbage. You can use a barbecue, a grill pan or even the broiler. And while the anchovies are optional, they are highly recommended, providing a delicious umami base note to the dish.—Camilla Wynne

This lightly dressed potato salad breaks free from the traditional mayonnaise-based version. This delicious dish features a diverse combination of vegetables, herbs and a little punch of mustard.

Yukon gold potatoes are first grilled in foil, then directly on the BBQ to give them their handsome grill marks.
