Pork Fillet with Stuffed Dried Apricots and Walnuts

I had always wanted to try stuffed turkey but it is difficult to buy fresh turkey in our country.

 

Hence, I decided to try roasting Pork Fillet with Apricot and Walnut Stuffings instead of turkey.

 

Pork fillet is much easier to purchase in our country and we could buy fresh pork fillet at very reasonable price.

 

Buy pork fillet from the wet market, make sure that the fillet is lean, without fats.

Alternatively, you can also buy pork fillets from the supermarket buy make sure that the color of the fillets are red pinkish , not pale.

Touch the pork meat, it should bounce back when you press in down.

 

Use a sharp kitchen knife to cut a big slit at the top of the fillet, big enough to stuff in the ingredients later.

For the stuffin fillings; I would recommend you to put in non meaty ingredients, more fibre and nuts for chrunchy and sweet tasty flavor that matches the pork fillet.

 

If you like, you could try chopping dried apricots, sultanas, red dates, plums for more fibre.

Assorted nuts such as walnuts, pecans, cashewnuts are great for those who love chewy nuts but buy those raw nuts because they are cheaper than seasoned nuts.

 

Toast them in an oven for 10min, bring them out and chop coarsely not finely.

By the time you have chopped finely, you could taste out the difference as it melts into the pork flesh.

Allow the coarse nuts to embed into the pork fillet by mixing with the fibre fruits.

 

Egg yolk and breadcrumbs help to combine the dried apricots and walnuts together so that these ingredients do not fall apart when you cut the pork later.

Do not cut the cooked pork fillet to thickly after you had roasted it.

Moderate thickness should allow your family members to enjoy this pork meal without feeling bloated and remember to prepare complimentary side dishes such as vegetable salads or cooked broccoli.
