1. Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Stand roast on one end. To make an opening for the fruit, insert a long knife with a 1-inch-wide blade through center of roast.* Remove the knife and, alternating apricots and plums, stuff and pack fruit in the opening.
2. In bowl combine mustard, garlic powder, and pepper; rub meat all over with mustard mixture.
3. Place vegetables in 13x9x2-inch baking pan; place roast on vegetables. Pour wine over roast. Add 2 tablespoons water to pan.
4. Roast, uncovered, 80 to 90 minutes or until instant-read thermometer inserted in meat (not touching fruit) registers 150 degrees F. Transfer roast to warm platter. Reserve vegetables for another use. Cover roast with foil; let stand 15 minutes. Meat temperature after standing should reach 160 degrees F. To serve, slice roast and sprinkle herbs. Makes 8 servings.
- Tip *If necessary, cut an opening in each side, stuff half the fruit from each side.
