Number Of Ingredients 4

1-1/2 pounds black plums (about 5), pitted and chopped
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, or to taste
1/2 cup sugar
2 tablespoons kirsch

Steps:

  • In a saucepan combine the plums, the lemon juice, and 1/4 cup water and cook the mixture over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the plums are soft. While the plums are cooking, in a small saucepan combine the sugar and 3/4 cup water, cook the mixture over moderate heat, stirring, until the sugar is dissolved, stir in the kirsch. In a blender or food processor purée the plums with the kirsch syrup.
