A luxurious beef dish wrapped in flaky pastry with mushroom duxelles and prosciutto, baked to perfection and served with a flavorful sauce.

  • Total Time: 50 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lb center-cut beef tenderloin
  • 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
  • 8 oz mushrooms, finely chopped
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 2 oz prosciutto slices
  • 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Season the beef with salt and pepper, then sear in a hot skillet until browned all over. Let cool, then brush with Dijon mustard.
  2. Cook mushrooms in butter until moisture evaporates; season to taste. Spread mushroom duxelles evenly over the beef.
  3. Lay prosciutto slices on a plastic wrap, place the beef on top, and roll it tightly. Wrap in puff pastry, sealing edges.
  4. Brush the pastry with beaten egg, cut a few small slits for steam, and bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown.
  5. Allow resting 10 minutes, then slice and serve with a preferred sauce or sides.

Notes

  • Ensure the beef is thoroughly cooled before wrapping to prevent sogginess.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure perfect doneness (130°F for medium-rare).
