There are only two steps to this chutney recipe - in half an hour it's ready to eat with bread, cheese or ham. Great news if you have a glut of plums.

Ingredients

  • plums: 450g/1lb red plums, halved and stoned
  • caster sugar: 180g/6oz caster sugar
  • vinegar: 120ml/4fl oz cider vinegar
  • cinnamon: 1 cinnamon stick
  • star anise: 2 star anise

Method

  1. Put all the ingredients into a pan and heat gently until the sugar dissolves. Bring to the boil and simmer gently for about 20-30 minutes until the plums are tender and the liquid is syrupy. Cool and keep in the fridge.

  2. Serve with cheeses or ham.
