Hi! I’m trying to translate this recipe and can’t figure out the meaning of reichen as used in this recipe below and my German-English dictionary and google translate both say very different things. It’s referring to plating the sauce I believe. In context “Die Sauce getrennt dazu reichen.“ Any help would be great as I’m a very beginner German speaker!

  1. Serve the sauce on the side (separately).

    …and good luck with your German journey.

  2. “reichen” basically means to give something to someone. In he context of a recipe, it means to serve something (here: to serve the sauce seperate from the meat).

  3. To hand over, to add, to give as an extra, on the side…something in the ballpark of these.
