For NYE : What Spanish-style sides would you pair with Albondigas with Mushrooms?
We're making "fancy" Albondigas with mushrooms for NYE using a new recipe from Food & Wine. What are some Spanish-style sides you would pair with it? Ideally, we're looking for something that doesn't need a ton of attention immediately prior to serving. Make ahead or make same-day is great. We'll have 8 total people.
You all totally came through for me last NYE (we went with braised short ribs), so thank you in advance for all your creative ideas!

I'd also add a salad (I feel like I've seen a lot of bitter greens + citrus on menus recently) or vegetable and maybe some little tapas-style snacks? olives, cheese, pan con tomate... serious eats has a good Tortilla Espanola recipe that's good at room temp or cold, so could be made in advance, and could also be a good side or snack: http://www.seriouseats.com/2016/07/how-to-make-tortilla-espanola-spanish-potato-omelette.html
Here are my transcriptions:
