Step-by-step recipe for a Plum sauce for meats.

Step 1

In a pot, brown the finely diced onion, add a cinnamon stick and a clove. Pour in a cup of water or the sauce remaining from roasting meat (1 cup).

Step 2

Add Knorr Light Gravy Mix to the broth, which will properly season the sauce and give it the right consistency. Stir it thoroughly to prevent lumps from forming in the sauce. Cook everything for about 5 minutes, until the sauce thickens slightly.

Step 3

Remove the cinnamon and clove, add the plums cut into strips and cook for another 5 minutes. Finally, blend until a smooth sauce.
