Ingredients

Scale
  • 23 pounds center-cut beef tenderloin
  • 1 ½ pounds assorted mushrooms (button, cremini, shiitake)
  • 12 slices turkey (about ¼ pound)
  • 14 ounces puff pastry (thawed)
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons salted butter
  • 2 medium shallots (roughly chopped)
  • 2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • Flour for rolling out puff pastry
  • 1 large egg (beaten)
  • 1/2 teaspoon flaky or coarse sea salt
  • 1 bunch finely minced chives

Instructions

  1. Season the beef tenderloin with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a skillet over high heat and sear the beef on all sides until browned. Brush with Dijon mustard while warm.
  2. In the same skillet, melt butter and olive oil. Sauté shallots until soft. Add chopped mushrooms, thyme, garlic, salt, and pepper; cook until moisture evaporates. Let cool.
  3. Roll out puff pastry on a floured surface. Layer turkey slices on pastry followed by cooled mushroom mixture. Place the beef in the center and wrap securely.
  4. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Brush pastry with beaten egg and sprinkle with sea salt. Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown.
  5. Allow resting for 10-15 minutes before slicing.
