5 plums (10 oz.) 1/2 cup sugar 1/4 cup white wine
1. Halve the plums around pits. Remove the pits with the tip of the knife.
2. Place the plum halves in a microwave-safe bowl (1 liter or 1 quart.) Mix in the sugar and white wine.
3. Cover with plastic wrap and poke a hole in the center to release the steam.
4. Cook on HIGH(1200W) for 2 minutes.
5. Cool.*
* Serve hot or cold. The sweetness and texture changes as the temperature changes; they are good either way.
