Cut each plum in half and carefully twist them apart.
Use a spoon to gently remove the stone.
Pull the tips from the end of the thyme and reserve for serving then place the thyme sprigs in the bottom of a roasting dish.
Place the plum halves on top of the herbs cut side up.
Sprinkle the brown sugar over the plums, then carefully pour the water around the plum.
