How to cook
To cook pork with prunes in foil in the oven, take an even piece of meat and cut it into slices across, but do not cut it to the end.

Prunes need to be poured with boiling water for a while, then remove the seeds from it, cut into large pieces and mix with chopped garlic. Then a little sprinkle with salt, pepper. To make the meat more flavorful, you can use Provencal herbs. In a separate container, mix mustard, mayonnaise and salt. The resulting mass in the amount of 1 tbsp. l add to prunes. The mixture is evenly spread between pieces of meat.
After that, carefully coat the pork with mustard-mayonnaise mixture, tightly wrap in foil and pickle for at least 4 hours. It is best to leave the marinated meat for a couple of days in the refrigerator. Heat treatment is carried out at a temperature of 200 ° C for about 30 minutes. Next, open the foil, turn the meat over and continue to bake for another hour (after 30 minutes it is recommended to turn the meat over again). A quarter hour before the end of cooking, open the foil and let the dish brown. If a lot of juice remains during cooking, you should make a delicious gravy out of it.
