Ingredients
Single fillet beef steak (about 250 gms).
6 Shiitake mushrooms
4 Shallots or small red onions
6 Cloves of garlic
1½ tblsp Prepared English mustard
2 Slices cooked ham
1 Egg, beaten to a wash
Puff pastry
Method
Sear the fillet steak with a blowlamp until charred on all sides. Allow the steak to rest and cool.
Finely chop the mushrooms, shallots and garlic and stir fry in hot olive oil for about 5 minutes to make the duxelles. Remove from the pan and keep aside to cool.
Lay one slice of the ham on a cutting board. Spread half of the duxelles over the ham in an even thickness.
Place the cooled fillet steak on top of the duxelles.
Coat the steak in the prepared mustard.
Spread the remaining duxelles over the mustard.
Lay the second slice of ham on the duxelles.
Roll out the pastry and wrap the steak completely, sealing with a little egg wash.
Score the pastry with the back of a knife and brush the remaining egg wash over all sides of the wrapped steak. Wrap in cling film and refrigerate overnight.
Preheat the oven to 180 degC. Remove the clingfilm, place the steak on a baking tray and bake until brown, turning once.
