Critical Ingredients:
This recipe only has 9 ingredients, all of which are pretty common. If you don’t have Worcestershire sauce, use soya sauce. The only advantage of Worcestershire sauce – at least if your using a good one like Lea and Perrin’s – is that it is gluten-free, unlike most soy sauces. If you are vegan, you can use flavor-less cooking oil instead of butter.
