Chutney is a great side dish for both spicy Indian dishes and slow cooked or braised dishes. And curries. The most famous version is probably mango chutney, but rhubarb chutney is at least as good, and a really good variation.
The easiest rhubarb recipe that exists. At least of those I know. An unusual way to cook rhubarb, and one that can be used for many things. For example, I have used it as sour-sweet accessories for salmon tartare, yogurt, as a side for braised meat, in smaller pieces in a salad or on / in my homemade sorbet or in cakes etc. Only the imagination sets the limit.
You also get a good rhubarb syrup out of it which you can lighten up with a little water and use as lemonade, or in a rhubarb mojito.
Chickpeas are cheap, healthy and can be used for a myriad of dishes. Unfortunately, they have to be soaked many hours before they can be cooked. Who of us remember to do that? So it usually ends with canned chickpeas, or with something else entirely. Fortunately, you can cook them in under an hour with a pressure cooker.

this salad is one of the quickest and easiest dishes I know off, that also tastes good. I use it occasionally for boxed lunch because it is a lot of food in a little space.

Especially if you are a training hard and need as much protein as possible.
A good and simple salad, that can be used as an accessory to meat instead of the usual gravy and potatoes.

Beans, peas and egg are all very satiating ingredients in a salad. They also complement each other well taste wise. It is also a salad that is very easy to make. Furthermore, I got a weak spot for salads that uses a white dressing instead of a vinaigrette.
Normally, white potato salad is made with mayonnaise, but I prefer a white sauce made with yoghurt and cream. It is easy to make and equally well suited for everyday dining and parties, red meat or barbecue sausages. Also, you often have all the ingredients in the fridge, so it's faster than ordering a pizza.
Green potato salad is a good recipe if you are note able to make a gravy to go with your potatoes, or if it has to be quick meal. Oh yeah, it is also a good dish simply because it taste fantastic. You can also make it in as large portions as you have pots for cooking potatoes, and the potatoes can even be cooked the day before and put in the fridge, so it's great for parties. The recipe can be varied indefinitely depending on which seasoning and herbs you like.
The Grand Duke's salad is a bit of a love /hate thin. There are many who does not like beetroot and for those it is not a hit. For the rest of us it's a nice quick and easy salad.

A simple and filling salad that can be used both as a side dish and as a lunch in itself.
This is an even better version of potato chips. They fry better. They taste better. Just slightly acidic and mildly salted all the way through. It is basically the same recipe as regular potato chips. The only difference is that they are fermented before cooking. Basically like homemade saukraut is made
