👨‍🍳 Instructions

Combine sugar, wine, water, cloves, cinnamon and lemon in a saucepan large enough to hold plums.

Bring ingredients to a boil and cook, uncovered, for 5 minutes.

Add plums and bring mixture to a boil; lower heat and simmer the plums for 10 to 20 minutes, depending on their ripeness, until they are tender but still hold their shape.

Some plums will be cooked before others.

Remove cooked fruit.

Then, when all are cooked, return all the plums to the syrup.
