Minced Beef Wellington

Elevate your dining experience with the exquisite Minced Beef Wellington. A succulent mixture of seasoned minced beef and earthy mushrooms is encased in flaky puff pastry, creating a dish that’s both elegant and comforting.

Ingredients:

– 1 pound minced beef

– 1 cup mushrooms, finely chopped

– 1/4 cup onion, finely chopped

– 2 cloves garlic, minced

– 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves

– Salt and pepper, to taste

– 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed

– 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Instructions:

1. In a skillet over medium heat, brown the minced beef until cooked through. Remove excess fat.

2. Add the chopped mushrooms, onion, garlic, and thyme to the skillet. Cook until the mushrooms release their moisture and the mixture is well combined. Season with salt and pepper. Let the mixture cool.

3. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

4. Roll out the puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface.

5. Spoon the beef and mushroom mixture onto the center of the puff pastry.

6. Carefully fold the pastry over the filling, sealing the edges. You can create a decorative pattern on top if desired.

7. Brush the top of the pastry with the beaten egg for a golden finish.

8. Place the pastry-wrapped filling on a baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the pastry is golden and puffed.

9. Allow the Minced Beef Wellington to cool slightly before slicing and serving.
