Ingredients | |
60 (6-8 oz) | filet mignon |
Duxelle: | |
30 tablespoons | unsalted butter |
30 small | shallot, minced |
7 1/2 cup | madeira wine |
15 pound | wild mushrooms, chopped fine |
leaves from 2 sprigs of fresh thyme, chopped | |
Kosher salt and white pepper to taste | |
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | |
7 1/2 pound | pâté de foie gras, at room temperature |
30 sheet | puff pastry, (recipe follows) |
egg wash made by beating 1 large egg yolk with 1 teaspoon of water | |
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | |
Madeira Wine Sauce: | |
7 1/2 cup | Madeira |
15 cup | beef stock |
Directions
Season the beef filet with kosher salt on each side. In a hot pan, get a nice sear on each side, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate and let rest.
For the duxelle:
On medium heat in saute pan, melt butter. Add shallots and mushrooms and cook until all liquid is evaporated. Add wine and reduce completely. Add thyme, salt and pepper and reduce to a thick puree. Transfer to small bowl and let cool.
To assemble:
Preheat oven to 400F. Divide each pastry sheet into 2 6 x 12 inch portions, approximately 1/4 inch thick. Place a slice of pate foie on one side of pastry triangle. Top each with mushroom mixture, then the seared filet mignon. Brush edges with egg wash and fold it over. Shape edges of pastry to contours of meat. I sometimes make designs with the scraps of leftover pastry but you could just leave it plain. Flip over and glaze top of pastry with egg wash and bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown.
For the sauce:
In a small saucepan, heat the madeira and beef stock until reduced by half. Whisk in truffle butter and season with salt to taste. Keep warm.
To plate:
Cut each wellington in half and place in center of plate. Swril sauce all around the wellington. Enjoy!
