Welcome to the /ck/ challenge: SIDE DISH!

>Thread 5: Seriously? Edition

That's right: SIDE DISH.
What does that mean? Well, if you can't figure this shit out you should probably stay away from the knives.

*******
Dishes will be scored on the following areas, so keep that in mind.

-Presentation: The appearance of items on the plate; plating skills
-Originality: Creativity in composing the dish
-Appeal: How appetizing the food looks/whether or not the dish appeals to your personal taste as a voter
-Challenge Goals: How closely the entry followed the challenge goal(s)

The distinction between Presentation and Appeal: If someone submits an artfully arranged but burnt steak as an entry, it may score high in Presentation but low in appeal.
*******

Remember people, timestamp and unique identifiers. Stop forgetting damn you.

Please suggest as you go, 'cos I'm gathering suggestions like some sort of hoarder.

Entry One by Veganfag

>Garlic, onion, lemon risotto.

>On the fucking side.

>I guess I should mention that obviously it's vegan, garnished with green onion ribbons, green olives, the flakey things are lemon zest, and a little smoked paprika that I put on every "creamy" dish- which is just a habit since childhood.

9725360

>Here's my entry, Sweet Potato Casserole with Cranberry Sauce, 2 Thanksgiving staples. The creamy casserole has a really nice crispy and slightly sweet pistachio crust, without being overpoweringly candy-like. The sauce is a perfect balance of sweet and sour, though sadly it wasn't thick enough to mold onto the plate. Served alongside a nice pork chop, for lack of turkey, it all went together great and tasted amazing.

>And my entry wouldn't be complete without a vertical of the process. Also, forgot to mention the freshly baked pumpkin seed bread that I served it alongside with.

Entry Two by The Snoop

>Easy Corn Casserole

>1 stick of butter
>Half of a small sweet onion, chopped
>2 eggs
>8 oz carton French onion dip
>8.5 oz Jiffy corn muffin mix (dry)
>1 can whole kernel corn, drained
>1 can cream style corn, undrained

>Heat oven to 350 degrees.
>Sauté onion in half the butter, remove from heat and add the rest of the butter so that it melts.
>In a medium bowl, lightly beat the eggs, then add the rest of the ingredients - including the onion and melted butter - and thoroughly mix.
>Pour into greased casserole dish and bake for 45 minutes or until set.

>This is a very flexible recipe, so you could leave out the onions, use a bit more or less butter, use plain sour cream instead of dip, etc. I add the eggs to make it thicker, but it does fine without them, too.

I made three (or four, depending on your definition) side dishes, combined into one meal. I'll post photomuhgraphs when I can.
This couldn't really be an entry, but you can consider that way if you'd like, because I don't wanna enter with such a small number of people.

I cooked
bittergourd in egg curry
coconut cream sauteed beetroot with chilli and garlic
"quick carrot curry," a common side dish in my family so-named cuz it takes all of five minutes to whip up
and saltfish in curry gravy

Served with rice, which is the main, and the other dishes are all sides.
