Do You Use Prepared Jar Sauces To Make Main Dishes?

I bought a jar of Butter Chicken sauce from Aldi because I was hungry for Indian food and had been craving it. The directions said to cube up chicken, season with salt & pepper and fry it in oil & then add sauce. When I tasted the sauce it was bland & sweet. So I added 3 tablespoons of curry paste, some more salt, a spoon full of ginger powder & a fried chopped up onion….it tasted like Butter Chicken after I did all of that but thinking next time I will just make it from scratch.

@BalmyNites I don’t why they would put sugar in a sauce for Butter Chicken. Maybe I’ll ask them why they did it. It’s like some jarred spaghetti sauces, that sugary flavor is unnatural for spaghetti sauce.

@cherokeepatti Darling, everything has sugar & salt in, even cereals; it’s very bad & no wonder the kids are becoming obese/diabetes rates through the roof. I agree - who the hell wants a sweet taste to a savoury meal?
