How To Cook: |
|
|
1. Partially separate the meat from the ribs of the pork loin, using a sharp knife.
|
2. Mix the salt, sugar and pepper and sprinkle some on all cut surfaces of the pork, then stuff it with the apple slices and prunes; tie securely and sprinkle the outside with the remaining seasonings.
|
3. Stand the joint on the rib ends in a shallow baking tin and roast for 1 hour in a moderate oven (350°F), then pour on the water and roast for 1½ hours longer or till the meat is very tender, basting it often.
|
4. Put it on a large hot dish and keep warm.
|
5. Make brown gravy with the juices in the tin, after pouring off some of the fat; include 1 cup single cream and 1 tablespoon red-currant jelly.
|
NOTE:
|
The Danes serve this meat with boiled or mashed potatoes, red cabbage, red-currant jelly and pickles.
