Ingredients

  • 800 g Beef Fillet
  • 300 g Mushrooms
  • 500 g Puff Pastry
  • 8 slices Prosciutto
  • 2 tbsp Dijon Mustard

Instructions

1

Season beef fillet generously with salt and pepper. Sear all sides in hot oil until browned (about 2 minutes total). Let cool completely, then refrigerate for 30 minutes.

2

Finely chop mushrooms and cook in butter over high heat until all moisture evaporates and mushrooms are golden brown. Process into a paste (duxelles). Add thyme and season.

3

Roll out puff pastry into a rectangle large enough to wrap the beef. Spread prosciutto slices on pastry, then spread mushroom duxelles over prosciutto.

4

Brush beef with Dijon mustard and place in center of pastry. Fold pastry over beef, trimming excess. Seal edges with beaten egg. Refrigerate 30 minutes.

5

Brush with egg wash and make decorative slits on top. Bake at 200°C (400°F) for 30-35 minutes until pastry is golden and internal temperature reaches 52°C (125°F) for medium-rare. Rest 10 minutes before slicing.
