Steps:
- 1. Place oil in skillet to heat,add vegetables(except peas) and cook for about 8 minutes or until the veggies soften. Add the frozen peas and cook for another minute. Put the veggie mix into a large bowl and let cool completely. Crack an egg into a separate cup or bowl and beat it. Add the ground beef to the bowl of cooled veggies with a good pinch of salt and pepper and half of the beaten egg. Mix well. Lightly dust a clean work surface and rolling pin with flour and lay the puff pastry sheets one on top of the other. Roll out the puff pastry so it is a 12 x 16 rectangle. ( Dust it with flour as you go.) Turn the pastry so you have a long edge in front of you. Place the ground beef mixture along this edge. Mold it into an even, long sausage shape and brush the edges of the pastry with a little of the beaten egg. Roll the ground beef up in the pastry until it is completely covered. Squeeze the ends together to tightly seal. Spray a large cookie sheet with baking spray and put the Wellington on top of it.Or you could use parchment. Brush the Wellington all over with the rest of the beaten egg. Bake in preheated oven for about 40 minutes to an hour, until golden. Let the Wellington rest for about 5 minutes or so, once out of the oven.Slice.
Tips:
- Choose high-quality ground beef: Opt for lean ground beef with a fat content of around 15-20% for the best flavor and texture.
- Use fresh mushrooms: Fresh mushrooms add a delicious earthy flavor to the filling. If you don't have fresh mushrooms on hand, you can use dried mushrooms, but be sure to soak them in hot water for at least 30 minutes before using.
- Season the beef well: Don't be afraid to season the ground beef generously with salt and pepper. You can also add other spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika, to taste.
- Use a good quality puff pastry: The puff pastry is a key component of Beef Wellington, so it's important to use a good quality pastry that will puff up nicely in the oven.
- Chill the Beef Wellington before baking: Chilling the Beef Wellington before baking helps the pastry to set and prevents the filling from becoming too runny.
- Cook the Beef Wellington to the desired doneness: The ideal internal temperature for Beef Wellington is 135°F (57°C) for medium-rare. You can use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the Beef Wellington.
Conclusion:
Ground Beef Wellington is a delicious and impressive dish that is perfect for a special occasion. With a little planning and effort, you can easily make this dish at home. Just be sure to follow the tips above to ensure that your Beef Wellington turns out perfect.
