Instructions

Preheat the oven to 160°C. Soak the slice of bread in milk. Heat a tablespoon of butter in a frying pan and simmer the apple for 5 minutes. Mash with a fork, add the cranberries and simmer for 10 minutes.
Combine the minced meat with the soaked bread, thyme, apple and cranberries. Season with salt and pepper.

Cut the pork lengthwise and spoon the stuffing. Roll the pork over the stuffing and tie up tightly with butcher’s twine.
Heat the butter in a frying pan, bake the pork on each side until golden brown.

    Hi, Anna
    I have a question. The recipe says Pork Tenderloin, the photo looks like it is a Pork Loin, not Tenderloin.
    Could you please let me know if the recipe is for Pork Tenderloin or Pork Loin.

    1. Hi, this recipe is for pork tenderloin. Pork loin is larger and more like a roast, the cooking time is also longer. Hope this helps, please let me know if you have any more questions. Enjoy the recipe!
