Plum compote
Preparation time: 300–360 minutes
Makes 4-5 screw-top jars, each approx. 400 ml
Ingredients
2.5 kg ripe plums
125 g caster sugar
Accessories
Gourmet oven dish
or glass tray
Method
Stone the plums, chop them up roughly
and place them in an oven dish or in
the glass tray. Sprinkle with sugar, allow
to stand for approx. 3 hours, then cook
uncovered. Once bubbling, turn the
temperature down and continue to
cook.
Stir frequently during cooking. The
plum compote should only cook very
gently.
Do not allow it to become too thick, as
it continues to thicken as it cools.
When cooled transfer the plum
compote into sterilised screw-top jars
and seal immediately.
Stand the jars upside down on their lids
for approx. five minutes, then turn them
upright again.
