Plum sauce, as the name suggests involves cooking plus cuts into small pieces with water and additional spices such as ginger, garlic,red onion, soya sauce and red chilli sauce. Some people like their plum sauce thick with heavy consistency whereas likes their plum sauce completely smooth. For those wiry heavy consistency, their use chopped ginger, garlic and onions whereas the other with smooth consistency preference can use the paste of the same spices.
In order to prevent the plum sauce from getting burnt, one needs to constantly stir the sauce. This means that while the sauce is getting cooked over fire, one needs to stand infront of it. Adding all he ingredients and then over the saucepan with a lid and allowing the sauce to simmer on its own is a bad idea. Afterall, nothing can be worse that having to consume some burnt Plum sauce.
So a constant supervision is required.Nothing else can burn the plum sauce if this much attention is given to it. Afterall it is a delicacy that one eats as an accompaniment with steamed momos, fried, tofus, slices of chicken, boiled vegetables etc.
