Ingredients

3 lbs plums, cleaned, pitted, and cut in half
1 cup onion, chopped
1/4 cup ginger, grated or 1/4 cup ginger, minced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/4 cups water
2/3 cup sugar
1 tablespoon sugar
1/3 cup rice vinegar or 1/3 cup cider vinegar
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon coriander, ground

Directions

1

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.
2

With a food mill press through or blend using a blender in batches.
3

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.
4

Clean the saucepan and return the sauce to the pan.
5

Add sugar, vinegar, coriander and salt. Bring to boil and reduce to barely simmer and cook for additional (about) 1 hour.
6

Fill the sterilized jars and process in boiling water bath for 15 minutes.
