copycat recipes.

On Richars and Judy show some time ago. they had a man who copied well known sauce and other recipes, does anyone know of a site that shows similar ideas?

I don't know a site, but in the past if I have had say a really nice jar of curry sauce. I look at the ingredients and copy it using all the ingredients on the list that I can get. Most ingredients you can't get freely are usually, colours or preservatives.

The ingredients are listed in order of quantity, so the first ingredient on the list is the most abundant and the last is a smaller amount.

Part of the fun is trial and error experimenting. Some list stell you the percentage too, so if a recipe had water, then next Garlic 28%. You know that there is likely to be a little more than 28% of water in it.

I can usually get pretty close to the shop bought item.
