Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams ripe plums
- 250 grams granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons water
Instructions
Wash the plums thoroughly and pat them dry.
Cut the plums into small pieces, discarding the pits, and place them in a large microwave-safe bowl.
Add the granulated sugar, freshly grated ginger, lemon juice, and water to the bowl with the plums. Stir well to combine.
Place the bowl in the microwave and cook on high power for 5 minutes. Remove the bowl carefully (it will be hot) and stir the mixture.
Return the bowl to the microwave and cook for another 5 minutes on high power. Stir again and check the consistency.
If the jam is not yet thickened, microwave for another 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it reaches your desired consistency. Keep in mind the jam will thicken further as it cools.
Carefully transfer the hot jam to a sterilized jar while it's still warm. Seal the jar and let it cool to room temperature before storing in the refrigerator.
Serve the jam on toast, pancakes, or use it as a condiment for savory dishes. Enjoy!
