Hi all,

This particular sauce, also known as 'Toban Djan' in Chinese language is used in making the Mabo Tofu dish, one of my favourites.

I brought this jar from overseas and now it has run out, so now I am looking for it here locally. Has anyone seen it? Where can I buy it?

Any info is appreciated. Thanks.

Here is a picture:

In Pattaya, a number of the expat oriented markets have some Lee brand Chinese sauces. I think I may have seen that one at Tops. Do you have Tops there?

Yes we have Tops here in CM and I have seen a few other flavours, but not this one. I will keep looking. Thanks JT.

Worse case, you could stock up in Bangkok or ask someone who is traveling there. Speaking of Chinese sauces, I am totally addicted to Thai made "Kitchen 88" XO sauce. Only place I have found it is at the Central Food hall market Pattaya.

Rim Ping Market or The Bakery Store.

Worst case, a weekend holiday in Hong Kong to stock up on sauces.

No need to go that far.

Surely that decision is not yours to make.

Just stating a fact, mate. There is no need. You can go to Siberia if you want though. I get the feeling you are trying to pick a fight with me, please take a number and join the queue.

Siberia here I come

btw where is Siberia ? lol

I would try making my own sauce;

go to the nearest wet market and buy 10 baht worth of chilli sauce (nam prik phao)

It's not the same taste at all.
