Swedish-style Pork with Prunes and Apple

Peel and cut the ginger into 1-2 cm  (approximately 3/4-inch to 1/2-inch) long thin sticks. Quarter the plums. Quarter the apples, remove core and seeds and cut into wedges. Heat the water and dissolve the stock cube. Heat the oil in a saucepan and brown the meat on all sides. Season with salt and pepper. Add the plums, apple slices, ginger and broth and simmer, covered, about 15 minutes. Stir, season again with salt and pepper, and ladle into bowls. Serve immediately.
