The fastest way to make dinner exciting? A really good sauce. These are the flavour boosters, the secret weapons, the “how did you make this taste so good?” part of the meal – and they deserve a permanent spot in your fridge or back pocket.
This collection is packed with easy, make-ahead sauces and dressings that instantly level up whatever you’re cooking (or reheating). Think Creamy Mushroom Sauce for schnitzels, steaks or pasta night. Sweet Chilli Lime Sauce is perfect for dumplings, noodles, fresh seafood or anything that needs a sweet little kick, while Homemade Ranch Dipping Sauce is tangy, creamy and ready for fries, nuggets or veggie sticks. There’s also Cheat’s Caesar Dressing that’s outrageously good on anything leafy (or chicken-y), and the Best Homemade Tartare Sauce – because fish and chips deserve better than a sad little sachet.
These recipes are all about maximum flavour with minimum fuss – whip them up in minutes, store them in jars, and suddenly you’re the person who always has a sauce to go with that.
