Ingredients:-
2.7 kg fresh plums
1 1/4 cups water
2 kg sugar
2 Tbsp freshly grated ginger
(Makes approx 1.5 litres, double up ingredients if you would like to make 3 litres)
METHOD:-
Sterilize jam jars and thoroughly dry.
In large pot, place plums with water and cook slowly on low heat until fruit is pulped, remove stones as they float to the top.
Add sugar and ginger, boil rapidly for around 20 minutes, stir occasionally with wooden spoon to avoid mixture sticking to the bottom.
To test mixture, put a tablespoon of the jam on a saucer, when this cools a skin should form on top.
Place jam into the warm jars and cover until cool.
