I would say half a cup should be the minimum side order size. (I prefer the dish with vinegar and light on the mayo.)

And thanks, all, for making my mouth water for a pulled-pork sandwich, which I am not likely to find here in Qatar, during Ramadan.

(Lamb ouzi -- a stringy, tender, sometimes richly greasy preparation -- nearby which you can sometimes find some cooked cabbage, is a vastly inferior option, but the closest thing that I am likely to find. )
