Make
1. Prepare the stuffing; place the couscous in a large bowl, add the stock and leave for 5-10 minutes or until all the liquid is absorbed. Fluff up with a fork and set aside to cool. Stir in the pine nuts or hazelnuts, apricots, mint and orange zest and juice.
2. Place the joint on a chopping board and season on both sides with salt, pepper and ground cinnamon. Spread the stuffing mixture evenly over the joint, but do not over fill. Roll up and secure with butcherÃs string or elasticated meat bands.
3. Place the joint on a metal rack in a large non-stick roasting tin, and drizzle with the olive oil. Cover and roast in a preheated oven for the preferred, calculated cooking time. Shape any remaining stuffing into small balls and roast separately in the oven for 15-20 minutes.
