I added a bit of cayenne pepper to the plum sauce for a little bit of heat. It was delicious!

I didn't have any plums on hand, so I used applesauce instead. It turned out great!

The pork was a bit dry. I think I overcooked it. Next time I will cook it for less time.

This dish was a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less sugar in the plum sauce.
