Veal loin roast with apricots and pistachios

Ingredients
3 lbs  boneless veal loin roast (1750 g)
1 tablespoon butter (15ml)
1 large or 2 small shallots, minced
1/4 cup dry white wine (50ml)
1  1/4 cups dried apricots, coarsely chopped (300 ml)
2 tablespoons  each of dried cherries and dried currants (30 ml)
1/2 cup  shelled pistachios (125 ml)
1 tablespoon each of chopped fresh thyme and parsley (15 ml)
1 medium carrot, peeled
2 stalks celery
large onion, peeled

- Glaze
1/2 cup apricot jam, (125 ml) pureed if very chunky tablespoon (is ml) brandy
1 tbsp mL) Dijon or similar mustard
1 clove garlic, minced

- Sauce
1/4 cup  all-purpose flour (50 ml)
3 -4 cups  chicken broth (75o ml to 1 litre)
salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme (30ml)
2 tablespoons  chopped fresh parsley (30 ml)

Directions
Heat butter in a small saucepan over medium heat until bubbly.
Add shallots; cook 2 minutes or until softened.
Add wine; pull pan off heat.
Stir in apricots, cherries and currants; let cool while proceeding with recipe.
Then stir in pistachios, thyme and parsley.

Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C).

Lay the veal roast on cutting board.
Horizontally stab a boning knife into centre of one end, carefully working knife back and forth to form a slash that comes within 1-inch (2.5-cm) of either side.
Turn veal roast and do the same from the other side.
Work knife carefully so slash goes completely through length of the veal loin.

Standing veal loin on end, and switching ends back and forth as needed, stuff veal roast very firmly with apricot mixture.
The veal roast expands width wise as stuffing is forced inside. (Veal roast can be covered and refrigerated for up to half a day.)

Coarsely dice carrot, celery and onion to form a mirepoix measuring about 2 cups (500 ml).
To make glaze, briefly microwave apricot jam and brandy for a few seconds until quite warm; stir in mustard and garlic.

Heat a large heavy frying pan capable of going into the oven (cast iron is best) until hot over medium-high heat; spray with high- heat nonstick spray.
Beginning fat-side down, brown pork about 2 minutes per side.
Scatter mirepoix around and under roast; brush roast with about a third of the glaze.

Bake 25 minutes; brush on another third of glaze.
Bake another 25 minutes; brush on last of glaze.
If roast is browning too much, loosely cover with a piece of foil.
Continue baking another 20-30 minutes or until meat thermometer reads 145° to 150°F (63° to 65°C).
(Allow additional roasting time for made-ahead chilled stuffed veal roast.)
Remove veal roast to cutting board; tent with foil while making sauce.

Sprinkle flour over pan dripping and mirepoix.
Place pan over medium heat; slowly stir in broth.
Bring to a boil; let bubble several minutes or until desired thickness.
Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Strain, discarding solids; stir in thyme and parsley.

Slice the veal roast about 1/2 inch (1 cm) thick, laying slices onto warm serving plates.
Drizzle with bit of sauce; pass remaining sauce at the tab
