  • 3 plums

  • 1 tea spoon cornstarch

  • 1 cup water

Procedure

  • Chop the plums into big pieces, and remove the seeds.

  • Put dates, chopped plums, and a cup of water to boil.

  • When water boils, simmer and stir with wooden spoon, pressing on the pieces of dates and plums

  • In a few minutes, the mixture should have a pulpy consistency with no large chunks

  • Mix the corn starch with some water to make a milky white liquid and add to the pulpy mixture

  • Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring continuously, and simmer for another minute

The date plum jam is ready. Put it in a glass jar and eat it quickly.
