      Dear Miss N.A.M, it won't taste the same, but you can use any kind of sweet juice, like these, apple cider, pineapple juice, grape juice, sprite...etc. Then add a bit of brown sugar or Vietnamese fish sauce to it! Good luck! (^_−)−☆

      Try steak or A1 sauce.

      Why? You don't like Worcestershire sauce?? It's a great condiment!! =)

    THANK YOU! I didn't want to spend the silly ebay/amazon prices on the sauce, and I couldn't find it in the asian store. Seriously thanks!
    Do you know the recipe for the other sauce used? (Looks like mayonnaise, and is a beige colour)
