My very quick sauce is 2 tbsp dried onions, carton natural yogurt, and 2 -3 tablespoons lime pickle. …. mix together bring to just under the boil. Lovely over chicken or pork!

My quick go-to is pesto mixed with creme fraiche, it's lovely with baked salmon or chicken or whatever you want.......I know it's a bit of a cheat as it uses ready made ingredients but it always goes down well!

I do a similar one, but instead of the apples I do mushrooms - soften them with the onions, with butter and olive oil, and then add mustard any type I have to hand, white wine, and sour cream, slat and pepper no need to blend. Great to brown some pork fillet steaks in the pan first and then add them back to the sauce before adding the sour cream.

Anyone share their delicious quick cooking sauces?

I ask this because yesterday I made, what I thought was a delicious quick sauce over my pork mince balls.

Firstly one should fry some onions in a bit of butter and sunflower oil ( this I did leave out but still added the butter and oil.
Peel and slice two or three apples, depending on the amount of meat. Add the apples to a pan and fry along with some fromage fraiche, chicken stock and calvados or brandy with a touch if sugar. If you don’t want to add the alcohol I am sure just chicken stock would be ok. Blend the sauce in a liquidiser and there you are: so quick but tasty
