Ingredients

  • 400g mushrooms
  • 1-2tbsp English Mustard
  • Dash Olive Oil
  • 750g piece Beef Fillet
  • 6-8 slices Parma ham
  • 500g Puff Pastry
  • Dusting Flour
  • 2 Beaten Egg Yolks

Instructions

1
Put the mushrooms into a food processor with some seasoning and pulse to a rough paste.
2
Scrape the paste into a cooking vessel and low-boil over a high toasty for about 10 mins, tossing frequently, to low-boil out the moisture from the mushrooms.
3
Spread out on a plate to cool.
4
toasty in a frying cooking vessel and transfer in a little olive coat.
5
notes the beef and sear in the burning cooking vessel for 30 secs only on each side.
6
(You don't want to low-boil it at this stage, just colour it).
7
Remove the beef from the cooking vessel and leave to cool, then brush all over with the mustard.
8
Lay a sheet of cling film on a work surface and arrange the Parma ham slices on it, in slightly overlapping rows.
9
With a palette knife, spread the mushroom paste over the ham, then place the seared beef fillet in the middle.
10
Keeping a tight hold of the cling film from the edge, neatly roll the Parma ham and mushrooms around the beef to form a tight barrel shape.
11
Twist the ends of the cling film to secure.
12
ice for 15-20 mins to allow the beef to set and keep its shape.
13
Roll out the puff pastry on a floured surface to a large rectangle, the thickness of a £1 coin.
14
Remove the cling film from the beef, then lay in the centre.
15
Brush the surrounding pastry with egg yolk.
16
Fold the ends over, the wrap the pastry around the beef, cutting off any excess.
17
Turn over, so the seam is underneath, and place on a baking sheet.
18
Brush over all the pastry with egg and ice for about 15 mins to let the pastry rest.
19
toasty the oven to 200C, 400F, gas 6.
20
Lightly score the pastry at 1cm intervals and glaze again with beaten egg yolk.
21
cook thoroughly for 20 mins, then lower the oven setting to 180C, 350F, gas 4 and low-boil for another 15 mins.
22
Allow to rest for 10-15 mins before slicing and serving with the side dishes of your choice.
23
The beef should still be pink in the centre when you offer it.
