Ripe Plum (Aloo Bukhara)

1 ¹/₂ Kg

Sugar

1 Kg

Place a ceramic plate in the freezer that will be used later to check the thickness of the jam.
Wash and peel the plums, or you boil them in a pressure cooker for 1 whistle, transfer them to a plate and allow them to cool for 5 minutes. Now you can peel them easily, discard the skin.
Collect the pulp in a deep large pan and discard the seeds.
Add sugar and heat it on medium heat with continuously stirring for about 5 - 6 minutes or until all sugar dissolves.
If the plums are not too juicy, add 2 tablespoon of water so that the sugar dissolves completely.
Continue boiling the mixture over medium heat and using a potato masher, mash the pulp to make a smooth and fine mixture.
When it starts boiling reduce the heat. Cook the mixture occasionally until it thickens. Turn off the gas.
To test the jam take ceramic plate from the freezer and pour some jam on it and put the plate in the freezer again for 1 minute. Take the plate out of the freezer again and rotate your finger through the jam, if the finger track is clear that means the jam is ready and if not then cook it for some more time.
Allow the mixture to cool at room temperature. Store the jam in a glass container to freeze.
Enjoy delicious sweet and sour plum jam with butter in your breakfast.
