4. 4Mix cumin, salt and pepper; sprinkle 1/2 tsp of mixture over cut surface.
5. 5Drain fruit; save liquid. Arrange fruit over one side of pork. Fold over other side to enclose filling. Tie in several places with kitchen string. Rub meat with rest of cumin mixture. Place in pan.
6. 6Roast 50 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted in center registers 160° F (70° C). Remove to cutting board; let rest 10 minutes.
7. 7Meanwhile, add fruit liquid to pan and stir over high heat to dissolve browned bits on bottom. Simmer 4 minutes to reduce slightly. Serve with pork.
