Any advice on how to pair side dishes with which main dishes?

Are there web sites or links to where one can choose the right vegitable or side, when to use mashed potatoes and when to use rice variations, pairing soups? Hope you can help, I am trying to build a menu for my family, thanksAny advice on how to pair side dishes with which main dishes?
I would recommend doing a search for a recipes on the Food Network website to find similar matches from a show on their network. You will always find recipes from the show, which were intended to be side dishes.





The next thing is to use Wikipedia for classical meal pairings. If you did a search for Bangers, you will probably find Bangers and Mash, the classic British sausage disk.





The other thing to do is to think about what you've had at restaurants. If you go out to a restaurant and eat certain things that you love to eat, take your time while eating them to read the menu's description of them and the tastes that you find. That's one of the best way's I've learned to make some of my favorite side dishes.





Hope that helps :).
