The fruity stuffing complements the pork really well. Great with creamed mashed potatoes, and broccoli or cabbage. |

Instructions
- Pre heat the oven on Gas mark 5 or 190C.
- Cut each tenderloin almost down the complete length - be careful not to cut completely through. Open it out and beat with a rolling pin until flattened.
- Melt the margarine, add the chopped onions and cook for 5 minutes.
- Add the breadcrumbs and the lemon rind and juice, stir and cook until golden in colour.
- Mix in the sage, parsley and add pepper to taste. Cook again for a further 1 minute.
- Spoon half the mixture into the length of the tenderloins to within 1/2 inch of the edge. Arrange the prunes down the centre of the stuffing. Spoon the remaining stuffing over the top of the prunes. Roll the tenderloin into a roll and tie each one up firmly with string.
- Put the tenderloins into a roasting tin and brush both over with some vegetable oil. Season with salt and pepper. Roast for 1 hour until the meat is nice and tender.
