4 servings
Butter1 Tbsp
Plums1 lb
Onion1 C
Ginger2 tsp
Brown sugar1 Tbsp
Vinegar1 Tbsp


Chop onions coarsely. Remove pits and stems from plums and cut into quarters. Grate ginger.

Saute onions in butter until soft. Add plums and ginger and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Add brown sugar and vinegar, and stir well. Set aside until ready to serve, then reheat. You can even make this the day before and refrigerate. The flavors blend nicely when held overnight.

Fancy it up:
Use balsamic vinegar instead of cider vinegar. Use only 1 tsp for a very subtle flavor.
