If you don't have any currants on hand, you can substitute another type of dried fruit, such as raisins or cranberries.

I also recommend using fresh currants for the sauce. They have a much better flavor than dried currants.

This stuffed pork loin was amazing! The meat was so tender and juicy, and the currant sauce was the perfect complement. I will definitely be making this again.
