I liked the look of this recipe as I didn't have to bother with removing the stones before cooking!

(washed and stalks removed)
- 1 lemon
(juice of)
- 1 Cup water
- 1.25 KiloGram sugar
- Place plums, lemon juice and water in a large saucepan and bring to the boil, stirring occasionally.
- Continue to cook, stirring frequently to prevent mixture from catching, until plums are well broken down.
- Add sugar and stir until sugar is dissolved. Bring mixture back to the boil, stirring regularly, and cook until setting point is reached (about 105 degrees C on sugar thermometer)
