Ingredients

1 lb beef tenderloin

1 tbsp olive oil

1/2 lb mushrooms, finely chopped

2 tbsp butter

2 cloves garlic, minced

1/4 cup shallots, minced

1 tbsp fresh thyme, chopped

1/4 cup dry white wine

Salt and pepper to taste

1 lb puff pastry

1 egg, beaten

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the beef tenderloin on all sides until browned. Remove from heat and let cool.

3. In the same skillet, melt butter and add mushrooms, shallots, and garlic. Cook until mushrooms are browned and liquid is evaporated.

4. Stir in thyme and white wine, cooking until wine is reduced. Season with salt and pepper, then cool the duxelles mixture.

5. Roll out puff pastry and cut into squares large enough to wrap beef pieces.

6. Slice beef tenderloin into small cubes and place a cube on each pastry square. Top with a spoonful of mushroom duxelles.

7. Wrap the pastry around the beef and duxelles, sealing edges with beaten egg.

8. Place pastry-wrapped beef on the prepared baking sheet and brush with remaining beaten egg.

9. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown and puffed. Serve warm.
