Method
- Preheat the oven to 200°C/fan180°C/gas 6. Put the plums in a large roasting tin, cut side up. Mix the gin and orange juice and pour over the fruit. Sprinkle with the sugar and bake for 15-20 minutes, until tender.
- Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a large dish to cool. Put the roasting tin over a high heat on the hob. Bring to the boil and cook for 3-4 minutes or until reduced and syrupy. Cool, then pour over the cooled plums. Serve with shortbread and ice cream or clotted cream.
