onion in a little butter and mix with the prune mixture. Cut each
pork fillet in half lengthwise and spread lower halves with the
prune mixture. Cover with the top halves and tie with string. Dust
fillets with seasoned flour, adding extra seasoning if desired.
Place in an ovenproof dish, pour melted butter over, cover and cook
for 40 minutes. Remove from oven and pour off liquid into a pan.
Return fillets to oven and cook, uncovered, for further 15 to 20
minutes to brown. Blend the flour into the liquid, then add reserved
prune liquid and water or stock. Bring to boil, stirring; boil for 3
minutes. Stir in cream and brandy and heat through; do not boil.
Remove strings from fillets, place on a dish and pour the sauce
over.
