plum stew

We get spicy tajine-baked vegetables, chargrilled chicken with rice, and some epic plums stewed with cinnamon and rosewater.

Powidl (or Powidel, from Czech povidla or Polish powidła or powidło) is a plum stew.

And though it does seem more of a cookbook for cold weather, there are many recipes that would be better made in the summer: spicy pork and red plum stew, duck braised with fresh figs, and okra and tomato stew.

Hart, venison, chicken drumsticks with capsicum, earthenware bowls filled with beans and sausage and freshly-baked white bread, purple plums stewed in honey, rose-coloured wine from the vineyards of the Corbieres and pitchers of ale for those with weaker heads.
