Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb beef tenderloin
- 8 oz cremini mushrooms, finely chopped
- 1 sheet puff pastry (about 1 lb)
- 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 egg (for egg wash)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
- Prepare the beef filling: Sauté onions and mushrooms in olive oil over medium heat until golden brown. Add minced garlic and sauté briefly until fragrant.
- Sear the beef: Season the tenderloin with salt and pepper, then sear in a hot pan for about 3-4 minutes on each side until browned. Allow it to cool slightly before spreading Dijon mustard over it.
- Assemble the bites: Roll out the puff pastry on a floured surface and cut into squares. Place a spoonful of mushroom mixture on each square, followed by a piece of beef.
- Seal and bake: Fold the pastry over the filling and seal edges well. Brush with egg wash. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
