Shake plums with salt
Add 50g of salt, 5 chili peppers, and 10g of minced garlic into a pan and dry roast until cool to make roasted salt.
Gradually add 50g of sugar and 30g of roasted salt into a container with 1/2 of the prepared plums, close the lid and shake well. Let the plums absorb the seasoning for about 5 – 10 minutes to have a crispy and attractive salted plum dish.
