Ingredients:
Ingredients:
- 1 (2lb.) beef tenderloin, trimmed
- Salt and pepper
- Olive oil
- 2 tbsp. Dijon mustard
- 1 1/2 lb. mixed mushrooms, chopped
- 1 shallot, chopped
- Leaves from 1 thyme sprig
- 2 tbsp. unsalted butter
- 12 slices prosciutto
- All-purpose flour, for dusting
- 14 oz. puff pastry, thawed
- 1 large egg, beaten
- Flaky salt
- Tie the beef tenderloin with kitchen twine and season it with salt and pepper.
- Sear the tenderloin in a hot skillet with olive oil until well-browned all over, about 12 minutes. Let it cool, then coat with Dijon mustard and refrigerate.
- Make the mushroom mixture (duxelles) by pulsing mushrooms, shallot, and thyme in a food processor. Cook with butter until dry, then cool in the fridge.
- Lay plastic wrap on a work surface and arrange prosciutto slices to form a rectangle. Spread the cooled mushroom mixture over the prosciutto.
- Season the tenderloin and place it at the bottom of the prosciutto. Roll tightly using the plastic wrap, then chill in the fridge.
- Roll out puff pastry on a floured surface, place the tenderloin on it, and wrap tightly. Seal the edges with egg wash.
- Chill the wrapped tenderloin for 20 minutes, then remove plastic wrap, brush with egg wash, and sprinkle with flaky salt.
- Bake at 425°F until golden and medium-rare inside (120°F), about 40-45 minutes. Let it rest before slicing and serving.
