Best 2 Copycat Recipes!


Fettuccine with spaghetti sauce? Something I just tried for fun and came out great. I had to try the spaghetti sauce recipe that I saw in the No Reservations with Anthony Bourdain show. I wanted a lovely appetizer to go with it and it had to be Cheese cake factory's avocado rolls. I googled for a copycat recipe and to my surprise, it did come out just like the original one. My mom who is not very fond of  Italian cuisine, surprisingly loved it. This meal was a big change after all the south Indian food we have been having past a week. The cashew dip turned out so very close to the one at the restaurant. I was simply thrilled. The only mistake I did was to grind a tad bit more of the coriander leaves than need, hence the green hue instead of the transparent white-ish color.

These two are the best copycat recipes that did not disappoint me. They were simply spot on!


The spaghetti sauce was simply awesome. Avi hates anything that is close to marinara and he said this was the best tomato based sauce ever! Thanks to Anthony for the lovely recipe and a wonderful show. I even love his new show, The layovers.  One should see to learn what one can do during a layover at airports. I loved the Singapore, Changi airport episode. Being from Singapore, I was overwhelmed with a lot of nostalgia.Singapore is one country where in you can see most of the place in a day's time and eat awesome food.

Here is the best spaghetti sauce recipe from Tony Bourdain
