No, you just need to pick up a pound of American butter available in every
single grocery store and many curbside markets here. Open the package and
take out one stick (the weight of that stick will be 4 ounces) and look at
the measurements clearly given on every single stick in the package.

It not hard to cut off a tablespoon of butter from that stick or even to
halve that tablespoon. It can't be that difficult to guestimate a tablespoon
or even a teaspoon of butter from what's available in your kitchen in your
country if you're a moderate cook.
