Main Ingredients

  • 1 kg beef fillet trimmed
  • 250 g mushrooms finely chopped
  • 12 slices prosciutto
  • 500 g puff pastry thawed if frozen
  • 2 egg yolks beaten
  • to taste salt and pepper

Instructions 

  1. 1. Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
  2. 2. Season the beef fillet with salt and pepper. Sear it in a hot skillet until browned on all sides. Let it cool.
  3. 3. In the same skillet, cook the mushrooms until they release their moisture and become dry. Let them cool.
  4. 4. Lay out a sheet of plastic wrap. Arrange the prosciutto slices on it, overlapping slightly. Spread the mushrooms over the prosciutto.
  5. 5. Place the beef fillet on top of the mushrooms. Use the plastic wrap to roll the prosciutto and mushrooms around the beef. Chill for 15 minutes.
  6. 6. Roll out the puff pastry on a floured surface. Remove the plastic wrap from the beef and place it in the center of the pastry. Brush the edges of the pastry with beaten egg yolks.
  7. 7. Fold the pastry over the beef, sealing the edges. Place the wrapped beef on a baking sheet, seam side down. Brush the top with more egg yolk.
  8. 8. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the beef is cooked to your liking. Let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
