1 1/2 lbs plums
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 garlic cloves -- minced
1/4 cup fresh gingerroot -- minced
1/2 teaspoon five-spice powder
1/2 cup lime juice
1 tablespoon mirin -- or plum wine
5 tablespoons brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon asian chili paste -- with garlic
1/4 teaspoon salt

Pit the plums. Put into a food processor and purée.

In a heavy, medium-sized non-reactive saucepan, heat the oil over medium
heat.

Add the garlic and ginger; sauté 2 minutes.

Stir in the plum purée, five-spice powder, lime juice, Mirin, brown sugar,
chili paste and salt.

Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to low and simmer 25 minutes, stirring
often.

people insist you need to process in a water bath for about 10 minutes to
be safe.
