HELP ME PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!

I'm making a pork tenderloin that calls for tamarind paste. I live in a small city and cannot find it. Does any one have a substitute?

This bb is a virtual goldmine of information. How's this ?

Cook's Thesaurus: Indian Condiments
... tamarind paste = tamarind concentrate Substitutes: Blend equal parts dried apricots, prunes, dates, and lemon juice (adapted from a recipe in Jane's Recipes: Substitute Ingredients. See my sources.) OR lime or lemon juice ...

I found this link from Gail. The following link has lots of info on substitutions.

Thanks Gail !
