How to Make Apricot Plum Sauce
- Combine 1 medium onion, 2 cloves garlic, 1 inch ginger (peeled), juice of 2 limes, 2 cups chopped apricots, and 2 cups chopped plums in a food processor fitted with a steel blade. Process until completely pureed.
- In a medium non-aluminum Dutch oven or heavy saucepan, combine the pureed mixture with 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup rice vinegar, 1/4 cup soy sauce, 1/4 cup water, 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes, and 1 tablespoon olive oil. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer gently, stirring frequently to prevent sticking, until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency (approximately 45 minutes).
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- Stir in 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed (add more brown sugar for sweetness, vinegar for tang, or soy sauce for saltiness).
- Pour the sauce into a large glass container, ensuring the cilantro is fully submerged (or add it just before serving to maintain vibrant color). Refrigerate until ready to use. Enjoy!
- This sauce makes an excellent gift! Dilute with wine or nectar to create a delicious marinade.
