This sauce reminds me of Cameroon where I was born, I grew up eating this delicious sauce that's spicy, so full of flavour, which is paired with boiled ripe or unripe plantains, yam and rice 😋

Mike's Sweet Asian Dipping Sauce
Finding myself out of my pre-fabed Asian sauce one evening - I created my own. Now, this is my only, "go to," sweet Asian dipping sauce.Our family regularly makes assorted fried Asian appetizers. With those, we always employ this sweet, savory and spicy dipping sauce. We dip and literally pile on those fresh, chunky, chilly contents on top of our piping hot, crispy fried appetizers! Everything from Seafood and Vegetable Tempuras, Egg and Spring Rolls, Crab Rangoon, Wontons, Pot Stickers, Korean BBQ and charcoal grilled Yakitori meats. It's fantastic drizzled over Jasmine sticky rice as well.I'll also marinate my Korean BBQ ribs, chicken, pork and fish in this same sauce when we're in the mood for a sweet, killer Asian kick! See examples of both chicken and fish at the base of this recipe.

Chicken and Cabbage Simmered in Tomato Sauce
I had a lot of cabbage that I'd bought or gotten from people to use up so I came up with this recipe. Since then it's become a family favorite.Because you dust the chicken with flour before browning and then simmering it the umami is held inside and the meat won't fall apart. By sprinkling it with some sake for cooking, the gaminess of the chicken is gone and it becomes very tender. Adjust the amount of salt and water depending on how much cabbage you use. I use about 1/2 a tomato can of water. Recipe by Makichimu

Rice Gratin with Easy Homemade Bechamel Sauce
I've been making this rice gratin (doria) for some time. I always used to eyeball the ingredients, so I measured them properly for when my daughter wants to make it.When making the bechamel sauce, add the milk all at once and raise the heat to high, and just keep mixing and mixing until it starts bubbling! That's it! If you add cheese, the sauce will become richer! Leftover sauce can be used to make a special croque-monsieur for breakfast!! Recipe by Naomoka

Tomato Sauce
I learned this while I was abroad. This is an easy version that's light on the oil. It's a simple and delicious all-purpose sauce with no frills!Be sure not to burn the garlic when cooking it. You can make various versions by adding meat, vegetables, white sauce, sour cream, curry powder, etc. If you want to have a thicker sauce, you can add some katakuriko potato starch to adjust the thickness.

Slow Cooker Bolognese Sauce
Bolognese is another sauce that reminds me of my childhood. At least once a month, my mom would make it for us. To me, it was a delicious delight, but to her it was a money saver. Sauce, meat, herbs, & spices. Simple, but oh so good.I order it a lot, when I go out. But as with a lot of stuff, I wanted to make it myself. Combining different recipes found online, I came up with this recipe, along with my wife. This is the recipe that we agreed upon.We hope that you like it as much as we do. #mycookbookEnjoy!

It's quick and easy to make with ingredients you have at home.The origin of this recipeIn my region, yaki udon is traditionally made with sauce.

Sweet Tomato Sauce
I don't like commercial tomato sauce, it's too vinegar flavoured!Use this where you'd use store bought tomato sauce.Back off on the vinegar if you like, I think it's about correct but depends on the manufacturer.

Crispy Rice with Easy Spring Cabbage Ankake Sauce
I messed up when cooking some rice and it didn't taste very good. So I turned it into crispy rice with ankake to disguise it.Of course, if you have delicious freshly cooked rice, you can use it with this dish as-is.Mix the ingredients together before adding to the frying pan so that you don't have to worry about burning anything.You can use any meat or veggies that you have in your fridge!!For the yakisoba version, I used pork instead of beef, Chinese garlic chives instead of snow peas, and I forgot to add the carrots and shimeji mushrooms.

Butter & Soy Sauce Chicken Saute
I love vinegar, so I would make a perfect vinegar taste tester.Out of all the recipes I cook, this is far best my favorite.Some years ago I made this recipe in an attempt to recreate a dish I had in a restaurant, and have been making it ever since.As the soy sauce is supposed to provide most of the flavor, only add a little bit of salt to season. After cooking, taste and add more if needed.My son pours the sauce over rice to eat it up.If you make too much sauce, put shredded lettuce, or any of your favorite veggies on top of a bowl of rice and add the meat! It's also really good if used in a chicken rice bowl. Recipe by +pocopoco+

Chinese Cabbage & Bok Choy Salted Pork Belly in Sauce
Back when I was really into salty sauces, I made this using everything I had at home.The vegetables will become tough if you overcook them, so if you think they could be cooked just a bit more, that's a good place to stop the heat.You use the water-dissolved starch to add thickness to the water that's come out from the vegetables. So I think it's okay to only use a little water-dissolved starch. Recipe by chima@.
Potatoes In Beer & Whiskey Sauce
I made this today to have with some barbecued fish, it tasted fantastic. Sauce is also great on fish. Makes roughly 1/4 cup.
My Mommy's Thick N Chunky Spaghetti Sauce

Sweet and spicy chilli sauce
This is a sweet yet spicy tomato sauce that I like to add to my chilli. You could put it on anything you wanted too really but it's a really good fit when mixed into a chilli I think. If you don't want the sweetness to it simply substitute the 9 roma tomatoes with 4 beefsteak tomatoes and leave out the brown sugar entirely. When prepping the peppers don't include the bell peppers' seeds into the mixture however, do include the habanero seeds.
Spring cabbage and pork stir-fry with miso and oyster sauce
I wanted to make a good use of spring cabbage. The flavour of miso and oyster sauce mix is absolutely delicious.I used 2 large leaves of cabbage for this recipe.If your cabbage seems smaller in size, I would suggest you using a little more than that (3 to 4 leaves).The sauce is quite rich in flavour so you can be generous with the amount of vegetables you add to the pan. The finished dish will be as delicious if you swap japanese leek with onion. Recipe by Nanohana
