Before the meat is done, heat the remaining 3/4 cup oil in a skillet and add the almonds. Cook, stirring until they are golden brown. Drain on absorbent paper.
Slice the meat,put on a platter and keep hot. Drain the prunes, arrange on a platter and scatter the almonds over them. Serve the meat with the prunes and almonds as an accompaniment.
