I was looking for a quick recipe I could make with what I had on hand. This worked perfectly and tasted excellent. I didn't have plum jam so I used a jar of multi berry preserve (cherry, blueberry and grape) and it still was very good. Probably even better with the plum jam. I gave it 5 stars for overall ease of making it, simple ingredients and taste.

This was really simple to make and I had everything on hand. I doubled this and got 2 pints of sauce. This is sweet and spicy. We ate some with chicken and liked it very much. This is just like you get at the asian take out restaurants. I didn't use jam though, I was making homemade red plum jam and used 2 cups of the red plum puree and 3 1/3 c sugar then boiled it for 5 minutes, so there wasn't any certo or sure jell in it like the jam would hve had. Thanks for the recipe!!!

This sauce went fantastically with the mini sweet potato samosas on here. I added a lot more red pepper flakes (probably about 2 Tbsp. - we like our food fiery!), and a little more vinegar. Great flavours, and so easy to prepare... took me no more than 4 minutes to get it all heated up and ready.

This is so easy to make and it's delicious! I only changed a couple of things. I used the whole 18 oz jar of plum jam, omitted the pepper, used garlic powder, and added a couple of tablespoons of soy sauce. Served as an additional dipping sauce with Baked Teriyaki Chicken from this site. Thanks for the recipe!!!

This was the perfect sweet-sour sauce for me. The plum made it extra tasty. I left out the onion and it was still great!

This was great! I used it for a thai chicken pizza and it was just what I needed! I didn't have plum jam so I used apricot and it worked great! Good recipe!

This plum sauce is perfect for crab rangoons. I couldn't find plum jam so I used canned plums in syrup. I removed the pits and peels and blended them before adding them to the pot. I added extra sugar and it turned out well. It was a little too spicy for me so next time I would add half the amount of pepper.

Good, but you can't make this ahead very easily. Once it cools down, it thickens up like jam. You must re-heat and serve warm.

I used plum butter instead of plum jam and it was great! If you do use the plum butter add water to loosen it up. This was great served as a shrimp dip. I can't wait to try this with pork or chicken.

This is very good with coconut shrimp! I had it at a popular restaurant in Ft. Lauderdale and this recipe tastes exactly like it!

an excellent compliment to the crab wontons i had made. i found the sauce had a more pleasant texture if it was kept consistantly warm.
