Mexican sauce . hot chili sauce
A small can of mushrooms in sauce, I used a ladle of mushrooms per serve, probably would equate to a small can, per serve 1 tablespoon chopped capsicums, a mix of colours looks great 1 tablespoon of pineapple pieces chili sauce , as much as it takes to rock you. I made this sauce very, very hot.
Nice over chicken, steak, baked beans, sausages.

Gravy, to make ahead of time. Great too for catering.
Make up a pkt of , Maggi soup mix, any flavour. Thicken it with cornflour, Colour it with soy sauce. Thin down with vegetable water, if need be.
If there is enough browning's on the pan I will make gravy from the roasting dish, after dinner, and freeze for next time. I am well over, overloading MYSELF before I eat, these days. Enjoy.
