How to serve borekas?

I'd like to serve potato borekas for a Shabbos day appetizer. Obviously I can't serve it with a sauce, so any other creative/tasty ideas for what to do with them?

Thanks!

A variety of dipping cold sauces/condiments?

Do you want to serve "just" potato borekas? They are usually eaten "as is", without any sauce or anything. I can't even think of what they go well with besides pickles and olives.

The New Yorker in me eats potato bourekas like a knish... with mustard.

Yes, of course they are good plain. But I am thinking about them a little differently-- as a puff pastry appetizer, and want to dress it up a little. But maybe you're right yesha-- I can just squirt some mustard on the plate decoratively.

I serve with mustard.

My mom serves with mushroom sauce that she makes room temp. Its good but DH won't go near a mushroom.

I once went to someone who make a cold, thick avocado-mayo sauce and used a baggie with a hole to place in zig zags on the plate and strategically placed two bourekas and it was so pretty. Can't help u with the recipe but if u make a cold one that is maybe mayo or something thick it should be fine
