Wash, halve, and stone the mirabelle plums. Finely chop the flesh. Peel and finely dice the onion. Wash the chili pepper, cut it lengthwise, and remove the seeds and membranes. Also finely chop. (Wear gloves if necessary.) Peel and chop the ginger. Clean the lemongrass and cut it into about 4 pieces, pressing them lightly. Combine all the prepared ingredients, sugar, apple juice, and salt in a saucepan and cook over medium heat for about 10 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent the sauce from burning. Stir in the vinegar, remove the lemongrass, and immediately ladle the sauce into prepared jars. You can also use yellow plums instead of mirabelle plums. Makes about 2-3 jars, depending on the size.
