DECONSTRUCTED PORK WELLINGTON

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h15m

Yield 6 servings, plus leftover pork

Number Of Ingredients 20

All-purpose flour, for dusting
1 sheet frozen puff pastry (half a 17.3-ounce package), thawed
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon coarsely ground black pepper
One pork tenderloin (about 1 1/4 pounds)
Salt
2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more if needed
1 cup chicken stock
1/4 cup apple juice
2 tablespoons fig jam
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Salt and ground black pepper
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 small onion, diced
1 shallot, minced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 pound mixed wild mushrooms, chopped
Salt and ground black pepper
Small parsley sprigs, for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Sprinkle some flour on the countertop and unroll the puff pastry. With a rolling pin, roll out the puff pastry slightly, so it is large enough to cut out 6 circles with a 3-inch ring cutter. Cut out 6 circles and place them on a baking sheet. Bake the circles until they're puffy and golden.
  • For the pork: Increase the oven temperature to 375 degrees F.
  • In a bowl, mix together the mustard and pepper. Coat the pork in the mixture. Season with salt.
  • Heat the oil in a large, oven-proof skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork until browned on all sides, adding more oil if necessary. Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast until cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove the pork from the skillet and keep warm.
  • For the sauce: Place the same skillet used for the pork over medium heat, add the chicken stock and apple juice and cook, scraping up any browned bit from the bottom of the skillet. Stir in the fig jam and let simmer 2 minutes. Stir in the butter and cook 1 more minute. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Keep the sauce warm.
  • For the mushrooms: In a second skillet (or the cleaned out skillet from the pork), heat the butter and oil over medium heat. Add the onion, shallot and garlic and saute for 5 minutes. Stir in the mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 6 to 8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • To serve: Slice the pork into 1-inch-thick medallions. Place a puff pastry circle on each plate, then top with a circle of mushrooms and a slice of pork. Spoon some sauce over the top and garnish with a small sprig of parsley.

PORK WELLINGTON



Pork wellington image

A twist on the classic beef wellington with a succulent fillet of pork and a rich mustard and cream sauce. Treat yourself to the ultimate posh sausage roll

Provided by John Torode

Categories     Dinner, Main course

Time 1h45m

Number Of Ingredients 16

olive oil , for frying
2 large pork fillets (approx 800g), trimmed and the ends removed
1 shallot , finely chopped
50g butter
150g wild mushrooms (such as chanterelles), finely chopped
handful sage , picked and chopped
handful parsley , chopped
good handful chives , snipped
100g spinach
10 slices prosciutto
50g good-quality chicken liver pâté
500g pack puff pastry
plain flour , for dusting
2 egg yolks , beaten with 1 tsp water
300ml pot double cream
3 tbsp Dijon mustard

Steps:

  • Heat a pan with a little oil to a very high heat and season the pork fillets well all over. Put 1 fillet in the pan and fry for 2 mins to give it a little colour all over. Remove and repeat with the other fillet, then leave both to rest and cool.
  • Fry the shallot in the butter in the same pan for 2 mins, then add the mushrooms and cook until both are soft. Add the herbs and cook for 1 min. Season, tip 1/ 3 of the mixture into one bowl (reserved for the sauce) and the rest into another, and set aside to cool. Don't wash the pan.
  • Meanwhile, heat a little oil in another large pan, add the spinach and cook briefly until wilted. Set aside until cool enough to squeeze out all the excess moisture, then chop. Tip the spinach into the first pan and use it to wipe up all the seasoning and juices.
  • Overlap two pieces of cling film over a large chopping board. Lay the slices of prosciutto on the cling film in two rows, slightly overlapping. Carefully spread the pâté mixture over the prosciutto, then sit the pork fillets on top. Pack the mushrooms in the gaps, then top with the spinach. Use the cling film to draw the prosciutto around the fillet mixture, then roll it into a sausage shape, twisting the ends of cling film to tighten it as you go. Chill while you roll out the pastry.
  • Dust the work surface with a little flour. Roll out a third of the pastry to an 18 x 30cm strip about 2mm thick and place on a non-stick baking sheet. Roll out the remainder of the pastry to about 28 x 36cm, also 2mm thick. Unroll the fillet from the cling film and sit it in the centre of the smaller strip of pastry. Brush the pastry's edges with the yolk mixture, as well as the top and sides of the wrapped fillet. Using a rolling pin, lift and drape the larger piece of pastry over the fillet, pressing well into the sides. Trim the joins to about a 4cm rim. Seal the rim with the edge of a spoon handle. Glaze all over with more egg yolk and, if you like, mark the wellington using the back of a knife, taking care not to cut into the pastry. Chill for at least 30 mins or up to 24 hrs.
  • 6 Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Brush the wellington with a little more egg yolk and cook for 35-40 mins until golden - the pork will be just pink in the middle. Allow to stand for 10 mins before serving in thick slices.
  • To make the sauce, bring the cream to the boil, add the mustard and reserved mushroom mixture, and remove from the heat. Season and stir well before serving.

Time 3h10m

Yield Serves 8 to 10

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 small onion, chopped (1 cup)
12 ounces mixed mushrooms, such as oyster, shiitake, and cremini, chopped (5 cups)
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
10 ounces frozen chopped spinach, thawed, drained, and squeezed dry
2 tablespoons apple-cider vinegar
2/3 cup heavy cream
2 pork tenderloins (each about 1 pound)
1 sheet frozen all-butter puff pastry, such as Dufour, thawed
Unbleached all-purpose flour, for dusting
4 ounces thinly sliced prosciutto
1 large egg
3 tablespoons Dijon mustard

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add onion, mushrooms, and thyme; season with salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms are browned, 10 to 12 minutes. Add spinach; cook 2 minutes more. Add vinegar and 1/3 cup cream. Cook, scraping browned bits from bottom of skillet, 1 minute. Let cool completely.
  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Cut a slit down length of each tenderloin, deep enough to reach center, and season with salt. Pack mushroom mixture evenly into slits, then reshape tenderloins into logs with your hands, enclosing filling as much as possible.
  • Unfold pastry on a lightly floured work surface. Roll out to an approximately 13-inch square; cut in half. Starting at one short end of each piece, score diagonal lines, 1 inch apart, with a sharp knife or pizza wheel (do not cut all the way through). Score in other direction, creating a crosshatch pattern. Transfer both doughs to a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet, scored-sides down (if they become too soft, chill briefly). Divide prosciutto evenly between doughs, overlapping to fit and leaving 1-inch borders of dough. Center a tenderloin on top of each dough, stuffed-sides down. Whisk egg with 1 teaspoon water; brush borders with egg wash. Lift long sides of each dough up and over pork, stretching slightly as necessary until edges meet; pinch edges to seal. Fold short sides up over pork and flip so seams face down. Brush all over with egg wash; cut a few 1-inch vents in tops. Refrigerate 30 minutes.
  • Bake until pastry is puffed and golden brown and a thermometer inserted into centers of pork registers 140 degrees, 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer Wellingtons to a wire rack; let cool 15 minutes. Meanwhile, stir together mustard, remaining 1/3 cup cream, and 2 tablespoons water; season with salt and pepper. Slice Wellingtons into 2-inch rounds and serve with mustard sauce.

PORK WELLINGTON



Pork Wellington image

This is the answer to the age old question" These pork tenderloins are inexpensive and tender, but what should I do with them?" Borrowed from the beef version of Wellington, this rendering is affordable for all, and gourmet fare for those that don't have the acquired palate for pate'. It is also delicious using beef tenderloin. Pork tenderloins are tender and juicy, but don't have a very bold, meaty flavor. They do, however lend themselves well to mushrooms and beef flavors. This recipe makes good use of that fact, and couples it with the rich buttery flakiness of puff pastry. If fresh herbs aren't available, they may be replaced with dried ground 1/4tsp of each of the herbs.
