Mine probably isn't that secret these days, but almost every sauce I add nutritional yeast to. Curry, chilli, bolognese, it just makes them all better.

Garlic chilli powder. An Indian mate of mine introduced me to this condiment and it changed my life. I add a few pinches of it to most of my dishes now (noodles, pasta, pizza, sandwiches, fried rice, stir-frys and of course curries) - and it elevates then to the next level. (I love spicy food btw so this may not be for everyone, but for me it opened up a whole new world).

Yum. Not sure if it is the same stuff or comparable but my lazy-ass guac is basically mashed avocados and Lawry's Fire Roasted Chili and Garlic Powder and it is quite yummy with chips.

It's not quite the same but the basic idea is similar. The Indian version also adds lentils, cumin and coriander seeds, maybe other stuff too (like curry leaves) depending on the recipe/brand.
