Plum Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Boil all for 2 hours, Skim off stones. Put through a sieve and pour into air tight bottles or jars.

Steps:

• Add plums, onions, ginger, garlic and water in a large saucepan and heat until it comes to full boil. Turn down heat to low and cook for additional 30 minutes. Stir occasionally.
• With a food mill press through or blend using a blender in batches.
• If you like your sauce very smooth without the added fiber from the plums, run it through a sieve after using food mill or blender. This is the method I prefer and makes for smoother sauce.
• Clean the saucepan and return the sauce to the pan.
• Add sugar, vinegar, coriander and salt. Bring to boil and reduce to barely simmer and cook for additional (about) 1 hour.
• Fill the sterilized jars and process in boiling water bath for 15 minutes.

Steps:

• In a blender or food processor, combine pineapple, juice, salted plums, brown sugar, vinegar, preserves, and garlic and process until smooth. Transfer to a small saucepan, and add the crushed red chile peppers. Bring mixture to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and use as a dipping sauce for Egg Rolls.

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, combine all ingredients. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, 8-10 minutes to allow flavors to blend. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• For the sauce, fry the shallot in the oil for 5 mins or until softened but not coloured. Add the plums and sugar, stirring for a few mins until the sugar has dissolved. Add the red wine and stock, then simmer for about 15 mins, stirring occasionally, until softened and slightly thickened. Keep warm or leave at room temperature for up to a day before reheating to serve.
• Meanwhile, heat the oven to 180C/ 160C fan/gas 4. Score the skin of the duck breasts with a sharp knife and season well with salt and pepper. Heat a non-stick frying pan and place the duck breasts in, skin-side down. Fry for 6-7 mins, then turn and add the thyme, star anise and butter. Allow this to melt, basting the duck with the juices, then transfer everything to a small roasting tin and finish in the oven for 5-6 mins for pink or 10-12 mins for well done.
• When the duck is ready, baste again with the juices, then rest for 5 mins while you finish everything else.
• To serve, thinly slice each duck breast on a chopping board. Arrange on each plate along with a spoon of the Creamed potatoes, some of the plum sauce and the Buttered spinach.

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, combine all ingredients except sesame seeds; cook over high heat for 3 minutes. Reduce heat to medium high and cook, stirring occasionally, until liquid thickens and the plums have softened and broken down to the consistency of a chunky preserve, about 15 minutes.
• Remove from heat, transfer plum sauce to a serving dish, and sprinkle with the sesame seeds. Serve warm.
