Sidedishes for a Porkloin with Pomegranate Glaze

I've cooked a porkloin with pomegranate glaze, but I'm looking for some sidedishes to complement it. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Thank you.

    I would recommend a parsnip, leek and potato mash instead of regular mashed potatoes. The light vanilla flavour of the parsnips would work well with the sweetness of the pomegranate. I second the haricot vert with walnut oil or with just a bit of butter and parsley.

      grilled sweet potatoes would be a fine option.

        Creamy polenta with either parmesan or goat cheese stirred in
        and haricot vert dressed with a bit of walnut oil

          Or even a plain 'ol garlic mashed potatoes to offset the flavors of the pomegranate glaze.

            Cheddar/scallion mashed potatoes and maybe some braised red cabbage.
