Pork with fruit and berry filling
Description
Prepare these delicious pork rolls with filling. For the filling, chop dried apricots, nuts, and figs previously soaked in brandy. Mix with sautéed onions, add breadcrumbs, salt, and pepper. Lightly pound the meat, sprinkle with thyme, and place the filling on top. Roll up, tie with kitchen string, and sear in a skillet. Then drizzle with a mixture of honey and the brandy in which the figs were soaked, and place in the oven for 30 minutes at 180°C (356°F). Once cooked, cover the pork with foil and let it rest for about 10 minutes. Slice into portions and serve.
