directions

  • Heat a large saute pan over medium-high heat and coat lightly with oil. Season steaks well with salt and pepper. Brown well on all sides. Remove from pan, cover loosely and refrigerate.
  • Drain excess fat from pan and return to heat. Melt butter and add shallots. When translucent, add mushrooms and garlic. Season with salt and pepper. Stir occasionally until mushrooms release liquid, then boil until liquid evaporates.
  • Add sherry and cream. Simmer until sauce thickens enough to coat mushrooms. Set aside and cool to room temperature. Transfer to a food processor. Pulse to form a rough puree. Adjust seasoning to taste.
  • (Steaks and mushrooms can be made 1 day ahead.)
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll puff pastry out to about 1/8-inch thickness. Cut into 4 squares.
  • Divide mushroom mixture evenly between squares and spread to 1 inch from edge. Top with tenderloin, then gently pull pastry up around steak and seal seams with beaten egg. Refrigerate for 1 hour.
  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Place Wellingtons, seam side down, on baking sheet. Brush all over with beaten egg. Cut a few decorative slits in top of each.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes or until nicely browned and internal temperature reaches 125 degrees F for medium-rare. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

I'm just me, mother, grandmother...friend to many and a Louisianian. My Cajun and French Quarter Italian descent afforded me exposure to some of the best of foods. My passions are my family, decorating, cooking and gardening. Those very passions push me into constant awareness with always looking for something new to delight the senses, thus my favorite idiom...Inspire me, puuuullllllleeeeeeease! ...and I mean it, too. God Bless America!
