Pastry – Beef en Croûte (Wellington)

1 - Raw ingredients: crepes (CJ01 – Pg 149), pastry (PUF2 – Pg 208), beef fillet, ‘Duxelle of mushroom’ stuffing - mushrooms, onion, garlic, parsley, salt, pepper.

2 - Layer pastry, crepe, duxelle, and then another crepe.  Place seared beef on top. 

3 - Fold pastry over beef to make ‘en Croûte’. Decorate second sheet of pastry as shown (or as you wish) and wrap around beef parcel.

4 - Glaze with egg wash and bake in a moderate oven for 40-45 minutes (depending on size of beef and cooking preference).  Slice and serve!
