sideys

Sideys is a colloquial term often used in various contexts, most commonly referring to a side dish served alongside a main meal. The specific nature of a sidey can vary greatly depending on regional cuisine, personal preference, or restaurant menu. Common examples include potatoes prepared in various ways such as fries, mashed potatoes, or baked potatoes, as well as vegetables like steamed broccoli, green beans, or a side salad. In some instances, particularly in casual dining or pub culture, a "sidey" might also refer to a smaller portion of a dish typically served as a main, intended to complement a larger order. The term emphasizes the supplementary role of the food item, highlighting its function as an accompaniment rather than the primary focus of the meal. It's a widely understood, informal descriptor for these secondary food components.
