What to Serve With Salmon Kebabs

Our answer

Nigella's Salmon Kebabs With Pomegranate Molasses and Honey (from Nigella Summer) have a Middle Eastern edge and so it would make sense to serve them with some couscous, which would also be a fuss-free accompaniment. You can make up the couscous following the instructions on the packet and then stir in some extra flavourings.

We would suggest as a starting point trying the Rocket (Arugula) and Lemon Couscous from Kitchen as the flavours would compliment but not clash with the salmon. You could also try from the same book the Cherry Tomato Couscous that accompanies the Lemony Salmon recipe. The Festive Cous Cous that accompanies the Party Poussins in Nigella Christmas is another possibility, though you may want to tone down slightly the spices from this recipe and add a good squeeze of lemon juice instead of the cooking juices from the poussins. And a green leafy salad dressed with olive oil and lemon juice is always a good parther to grilled meat or fish.
