Beef Wellington

 

Ingredients:

– 1 1/2 pounds beef tenderloin

– Salt and pepper to taste

– 2 tablespoons olive oil

– 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

– 8 ounces mushrooms, finely chopped

– 2 cloves garlic, minced

– 2 tablespoons butter

– 1/4 cup dry white wine

– 1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed

– 1 egg, beaten

– 1 tablespoon water

Directions:

  1. Season the beef tenderloin with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over high heat. Sear the beef on all sides until browned. Remove from the skillet and set aside to cool.
  3. Brush the cooled beef with Dijon mustard and set aside.
  4. In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and garlic, and cook until the mushrooms release their liquid and become golden brown.
  5. Pour in the white wine and cook until evaporated. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  6. Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface to a rectangle large enough to wrap the beef.
  7. Spread the mushroom mixture evenly over the puff pastry.
  8. Place the beef in the center of the pastry and fold the pastry over to encase the beef, sealing the edges.
  9. Brush the pastry with the beaten egg mixed with water.
  10. Place the beef Wellington on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 425°F (220°C) for 25-30 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the beef is cooked to your desired doneness.
  11. Let the beef Wellington rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
