    Because pork can be such rich and fatty meat (hello, bacon!), it can
    represent success in the coming year—making it a fitting New Year’s Day food for good luck. Further, pigs are animals that continuously push
    forward as they eat (unlike chickens, which move backward), symbolizing
    the potential for progress.

    Title: Apple & Walnut Stuffed Pork Tenderloin w/Red Currant Sauc
    Categories: Pork, Nuts, Fruits, Herbs
    Yield: 6 servings

    1 tb Butter
    1 c Chopped walnuts
    1 md Apple; peeled, fine chopped
    3 tb Dried cranberries
    1 tb Minced fresh parsley
    1 tb Olive oil
    1 cl Garlic; minced
    1 1/2 lb Pork tenderloin
    1/3 c Apple butter
    1/2 ts Salt
    1/2 ts Ground coriander

    MMMMM---------------------------SAUCE--------------------------------
    1 c Red currant jelly
    1 Shallot; fine chopped
    2 tb Cranberry juice
    2 tb Honey
    1 tb Dried currants
    1 tb Cider vinegar

    In a large heavy skillet, melt butter. Add walnuts; cook
    and stir over medium heat until toasted, about 2
    minutes. Remove 1/2 cup for serving. Add apple to the
    remaining walnuts; cook and stir 1 minute longer. Cool
    slightly.

    Place the cranberries, parsley, oil, garlic and apple
    mixture in a food processor; cover and process until
    finely chopped.

    Cut a lengthwise slit down the center of the roast to
    within 1/2 in. of bottom. Open roast so it lies flat;
    cover with plastic wrap. Flatten to 1/2" thickness.
    Remove wrap; spread apple butter on 1 long side of
    tenderloin to within 1/4" of edges. Top with apple
    mixture. Close meat; tie with kitchen string. Place on a
    rack in a shallow roasting pan; rub with salt and
    coriander.

    Bake at 350ºF/175ºC until a thermometer inserted into
    center of stuffing reads 165ºF/74ºC and thermometer
    inserted in pork reads at least 145ºF/63ºC, 55-65
    minutes. Let stand for 10 minutes before slicing.

    Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine sauce
    ingredients; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer,
    uncovered, until slightly thickened, 12-14 minutes.
    Serve with pork; top with reserved walnuts.
