Cook rice according to package directions. Set aside.
Pour boiling water over apricots; let stand 20 minutes to soften. Drain.
Saute green onions, mushrooms, and green pepper in butter until tender.
Stir in rice, apricots, pecans, parsley, and seasonings.
Remove strings and slice roast in half lengthwise, if not purchased
sliced. Slice pork pieces lengthwise in half again, slicing to but not
through one side. Lay pieces side by side, and spoon stuffing mixture
evenly over pork. Beginning with 1 long side, roll pork jellyroll
fashion, and tie securely with heavy string at 2 inch intervals. Place
roast on a lightly greased rack in a shallow roasting pan. Place bacon
lengthwise over roast. Insert meat thermometer into thickest part of
roast, making sure it does not touch fat or stuffing. Place an aluminum
foil tent over roast. Bake at 325F for 3 hours or until meat thermometer
registers 160F (30-35 minutes per pound). Remove foil for the last 30-40
minutes of baking. Remove roast from oven; let stand 5 minutes. Remove
string; slice and garnish with apricot halves and parsley, if desired.
Yield: 12 to 15 servings.
