A Sauce for Seafood

Recipe by: HaywoodManley

Invented by a friend and I while very drunk after a midweek afternoon pool tournament. I somehow had the where-with-all to write it down. I reckon it'd work well with swordfish but I've never tried it.

Alioli (All i oli)

Recipe by: Aureli

This is a popular Catalan garlic sauce that goes very well with grilled meat and roasted pepper and aubergine (Escalivada). I have seen many spellings for this (i.e. alioli, aioli...) but the real name is "All i Oli" - from the Catalan for Garlic and Oil - and these 2 are the only ingredients although there are variations and some places add egg to ensure the consistency of the sauce, which with our without egg should look like mayonnaise.

Apple Barbecue Sauce

Recipe by: YULANDA_US

Apple purée gives this sauce a rich thick texture that coats meat well. It has a sweet spicy flavour, excellent on chicken or pork. It may also be stored in sterile glass jars.

Apple Sauce

Recipe by: Rachel

Just a plain and simple apple purée to serve with roast pork, or to use as a filling for pastries. Also lovely on top of yoghurt or ice cream.

Asian Dipping Sauce

Recipe by: IBNSHISHA

This is a Japanese recipe for an all-round dipping sauce. This is one serving - make as much as you need.

Auntie Janet's Pasta Sauce or Soup

Recipe by: Lulu

When our children were little my friend gave me this recipe which hides vegetables in the sauce; my children still love it as teenagers. It freezes very well so I am never without a quick meal to hand. It can be used on its own over pasta or with the addition of single cream makes a luxurious soup. A vegetarian version can be made without the bacon.

Authentic Arawak BBQ Sauce

Recipe by: Wesley Murks

This is a West Indian marinade that's been used for generations. It's best suited for fish and game, but I also like it on chicken and pork. Make sure you adjust the amount of chillies to your taste. Also, I sometimes replace the orange juice with marmalade for a sweeter marinade.

Authentic Bolognese

Reviews(1)

Recipe by: Mooneybeams

A traditional style very rich Italian ragu. My flatmate loves it and she's from Milan, so I'm fairly sure it's good! To be entirely traditional you should leave out the green pepper and use either garlic or onion, and not both. You could also use a mixture of beef and pork mince.

Aïoli

Recipe by: Nina

This garlic mayonnaise originates from Provence and is excellent with fish. Serve with grilled salmon, fried cod or baked seabass. Vary the flavour by using olive oils from Greece, France or Italy, but definitely choose an extra virgin olive oil. Ensure you serve it fresh - do not store for more than a few hours.

This exciting Italian dipping sauce is meant to be served warm with crudités, crusty ciabatta, or whatever inspires you. The creamy blend of garlic and anchovies will become a favourite!

Barbara's Hot Sauce

This American-style hot sauce is inspired by what one finds on the table in the country's many Mexican and Tex-Mex restaurants, and gives just about anything the right amount of spice. You can use this as a table sauce, and spices can be adjusted to taste. Try it on burgers, tacos, barbecued meats and vegetables - the possibilities are endless!

This is a perfect sauce to use as a base. By making it yourself, you can control the amount of sugar and salt that is added. You can add a variety of other flavours to the finished sauce, just cooking for a few minutes to create a completely different dish.

BBQ sauce

Recipe by: BOBEVERLY

My mother-in-law gave me this BBQ sauce recipe over twenty four years ago. I use it frequently and someone always asks for it. A mixture of tangy ingredients, onion and brown sugar creates a tasty sauce! This will keep in the fridge for several weeks.
