Types of potato side dishes

In addition to these suggestions, here are other examples of potato side dishes:

    • Hasselback potatoes
    • Fondant potatoes
    • Mashed potato
  • Hash browns
  • French fries
  • Funeral potatoes
  • Duchess potatoes
  • Baked potato
  • Potato cakes

In general, try not to pair potatoes with another starchy side such as rice or pasta. However, grilled vegetables make an excellent complement to mashed potatoes or a funeral potatoes casserole; think grilled asparagus, roasted carrots etc… They will add some crunch and contrast to your potato side.
