Lavashak - Persian Fruit Leather
  1. Wash and roughly chop the plums. Keep the peels on as it adds wonderful flavor and color!

  2. Place the plums, water and salt into a sauce pot and bring to a simmer over medium heat.

  3. Let simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the fruit is mushy to the point of falling apart. (Watch the water level carefully and add a bit more over time if it starts to burn)

  4. Using an immersion blender (or transfer the contents to a blender), blend the fruit well.

  5. Continue to blend until no chunks are visible and the consistency is very smooth.

  6. Preheat your oven to 200 F.

  7. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.

  8. Spread the fruit mixture on the cookie sheet (here's where the cake spatula comes in handy) in an even layer about ¼ inch thick.

  9. Bake in the oven for about 4-5 hours, checking every hour.

  10. The lavashak is done when there is no visible wetness and the fruit leather separates easily from the paper.

  11. Cut into strips and enjoy!
