  • Cut an incision halfway through the meat parallel to the board.
  • Open the loin and season with salt and pepper.
  • Mix prunes, apricots, and parsley in a bowl with seasoning.
  • Place stuffing on the pork, roll into a sausage shape, and tie with string.
  • Mix the paste ingredients together in a clean bowl.
  • Smear the paste over the pork and marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  • Brown the meat on a griddle or barbecue for 2-3 minutes per side.
  • Cook on reduced heat for 30-40 minutes and rest for 10 minutes.
