Good side with Steak

I'm cooking up some good steaks i'll either get from fresh market or whole foods.
What is a good side? I'm drawing blanks. All i can think of is caesar salad.

grilled/baked eggplant sprinkled with brown sugar and Tony's. You can also saute some mushrooms in butter and garlic.

Double fried thin cut fries are my favorite. Creamed spinach seems to work well too.

Think i'll either go the spinach or asparagus route. Thanks guys.
I may save up the ketchup for a special night.

Otis's turnip gratin. It is awesome.

I'd do this, top the steak with the shrooms (maybe throw some caramelized onions in there too) and for a true side, grill some asparagus drizzle with olive oil, black pepper, and salt.

Turnip Gratin Recipe .... a very good side dish (Posted on 1/31/11 at 6:54 p.m.)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I did this last night. Ann Burrel's recipe. Very good with a steak.
Ingredients
2 cups heavy cream
3 cloves garlic, smashed
1 bundle thyme
Pinch of cayenne
Kosher salt
1/2 stick butter, plus extra for baking dish
2 pounds turnips, peeled and sliced very thin (mandoline works best)
1 1/2 cups grated parmigiano
Directions
Special Equipment: mandolin, 11 by 7-inch baking dish
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
Put the cream, garlic, thyme and cayenne in a saucepan and season it with salt. Taste to make sure it is adequately seasoned. Bring the cream to a boil and then turn off the heat. Let the mixture steep for 15 to 20 minutes.
Butter the baking dish and layer in 1/3 of the sliced turnips. Sprinkle 1/3 of the grated cheese over the turnips and dot with 1/3 of the butter. Remove the thyme and garlic from the cream and pour 1/3 of the cream over the turnips. Repeat this process 2 more times until all of the ingredients are used up.
Cover the dish with foil, place on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for another 20 minutes, until golden. When done a fork should slide in and out of the center of the dish easily.
For easier serving, let the dish rest 10 to 12 minutes before serving.
I used dried thyme since mine has been dead since September.I also doubled the garlic and used a strong dash or red pepper. A surprising and fine dish. To ramp it up for company, I'd serve out of a round food mold.

Sautéed potatoes and onions with butter and a little tony's are good.
I also like what I call a potatoe salad. I boil potatoes and eggs. Slice em up afterwards and add tomatoes, sharp cheddar cheese, and Italian dressing.
