I have always loved to cook from scratch and despite not being able to do it for a while, now I feel like I've a little more time on my hands and I'm getting the itch again.

I used to make up my own sauces and love trying new ones so if anyone does something from scratch that tastes amazing I'd love to give it a go if you dont mind posting it here, or even pm. Thank you

I make this sauce to pour over meatballs or any pasta

3 Tablespoons each of soy sauce & vinegar & brown sugar

1 packet mushroom soup

1 tin chopped tomatoes

And 1 tin of water - use the tomato tin .

Mix it all in a bowl

Put in a pan turn heat up to mid heat and it thickens and it’s super tasty

I love a good creamy peppercorn sauce on a nice rare steak

10g cracked black peppercorns

A good splash of red wine,reduce by half & finish it off with double cream & enjoy

Add 250 ml of orange juice to a hot pan, 3 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar, 3 teaspoons of honey, stir constantly and reduce, add cream at the end, delicious with duck or pork

Satay sauce is nice.

Peanut butter. Lime juice. Sweet chilli sauce. Soy sauce. Yum.

With wild garlic in the forest beside me I am eating a lot of wild garlic dishes. Wild garlic pesto is very simple to make. Blitz the wild garlic leaves, parmesan, garlic, lemon zest and sunflower seeds to a rough paste in a food processor. Season, and with the motor running slowly, add almost all the olive oil.

I keep this in the fridge and to make into a really delicious creamy sauce I will either add cream or cream fraiche and serve over pasta.

If you don't find wild garlic you can use basil instead for the pesto

If you'd like to make any basic "curry" a good homemade paste I've found is:

1 inch fresh ginger

2 cloves garlic

1 onion/2 or 3 shallots

At least 3 fresh chillies

10 small dried chillies if you have them, soaked in warm water for 10 mins (otherwise use more fresh chillies)

3 tbsp oil (preferably sesame or peanut oil to keep the Asian flavour)

1 tbsp tamarind or else squeeze half a lime

Generous shakes of coriander

Generous shakes of turmeric

OPTIONAL: Crush the white ends of 3 lemongrass stalks and add in.

Blend in a blender/processor and add to either coconut milk, chopped tomatoes or whatever else type of "curry" you're making while in a medium-hot pan.

It's a reliable and delicious paste.

Homemade satay sauce

Sweat chopped onions with garlic, ginger and some brown sugar. Add a shake of chilli powder or flakes, slash of soy sauce and a tin of coconut milk, let simmer and reduce a little, blitz with a stick blender. Stir in a Tbsp or 2 of crunchy peanut butter. Season...I add a bit more soy if too sweet and needs balancing. My kids love this over chicken and rice

Gonna make this today for dinner.
