📝 Ingredients (Serves 4):
- 🥩 1 kg (2.2 lbs) beef tenderloin
- 🥐 600 g (21 oz) puff pastry
- 🧈 40 g (3 tbsp) butter
- 🍄 500 g (1.1 lbs) frozen wild mushrooms
- 🧅 2 shallots, finely chopped
- 🥚 1 egg yolk
- 🌿 1/2 bunch of parsley and chervil, chopped
- 🌾 25 g (3 tbsp) flour
- 🧂 Salt, to taste
- ⚫ Pepper, to taste
📋 Directions:
- 🔥 Sear the Beef:
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Heat 20 g (1.5 tbsp) butter in a skillet and sear the beef tenderloin on all sides until browned. Season with salt and pepper, then let it cool. - 🍄 Prepare the Mushroom Filling:
In the same skillet, sauté the wild mushrooms with the chopped shallots until all the liquid has evaporated. Season with salt and pepper. Blend the mushrooms with the parsley and chervil into a coarse paste. - 🥐 Prepare the Pastry:
Roll out the puff pastry on a floured surface. Place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and chill in the refrigerator for 10 minutes. - 🍄 Assemble the Wellington:
Spread the mushroom mixture evenly over the puff pastry. Place the cooled beef tenderloin on top. Wrap the pastry around the beef, sealing the edges with the beaten egg yolk. Use a knife to score a crisscross pattern on the pastry. - 🔥 Bake:
Bake the beef Wellington in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown. - 🌟 Rest and Serve:
Remove from the oven and let the Wellington rest for 10 minutes in aluminum foil. Slice into thick pieces and serve immediately for a stunning and delicious centerpiece dish.
