Warm Plum Sauce (Hoisin alternative)

Ingredients

• 4 large plums pitted and cut into 1/4-inch dice
• 1 large clove garlic very finely minced
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon sesame seeds

Instructions

1. In a medium saucepan, combine all ingredients except sesame seeds; cook over high heat for 3 minutes. Reduce heat to medium high and cook, stirring occasionally, until liquid thickens and the plums have softened and broken down to the consistency of a chunky preserve, about 15 minutes.
2. Remove from heat, transfer plum sauce to a serving dish, and sprinkle with the sesame seeds. Serve warm.
