Time 1h10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 whole egg
1 tablespoon water
1-ounce dried apple rings
1 whole pork tenderloin, approximately 1 pound
4 1/2 ounces thinly slice prosciutto ham
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme leaves
1 teaspoon all-purpose flour
1 sheet puff pastry, thawed completely
1 tablespoon whole-grain mustard

Steps:

  • Place a rack in the upper third of the oven and heat to 400 degrees F.
  • Whisk the egg and water in a small bowl and set aside. Place the apple rings into the bowl of a mini food processor and process for 30 to 45 seconds or until they are the size of a medium dice. Set aside.
  • Trim the pork tenderloin of any excess fat and silver skin. Slice the tenderloin down the middle lengthwise, creating 2 separate pieces. Lay the tenderloin pieces next to each other head to tail, so when laid back together they are the same size at the ends.
  • Lay out a 12 by 16-inch piece of parchment paper on the counter and arrange the pieces of prosciutto in the center, overlapping them enough to create solid layer that is as long as the tenderloin. Top with a second piece of parchment, and using a rolling pin, roll over the prosciutto to help adhere the pieces to each other. Remove the parchment paper and sprinkle the prosciutto with the salt, pepper, and thyme. Set the tenderloin down the middle of the prosciutto. Spread the dried apples in between the 2 pieces of tenderloin and push back together so the apples are held between them. Using the parchment paper to assist, wrap the prosciutto around the tenderloin to completely enclose in a package.
  • Sprinkle the counter with flour and roll out the pastry to 12 by 14 inches. Spread the mustard thinly in the center of pastry and lay the prosciutto wrapped tenderloin in the center of the pastry on the mustard. Fold the puff pastry up and over the top of the tenderloin, then roll to completely enclose, brushing the edges of the pastry with the egg wash in order to seal. Turn the tenderloin over so the side of the tenderloin with the double thickness of pastry is underneath. Pinch the ends of the pastry to seal.
  • Brush the entire pastry with the egg wash. Place the tenderloin on a parchment lined half sheet pan and bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until the pork reaches an internal temperature of at least 140 degrees F.
  • Remove the tenderloin from the oven, transfer to a cooling rack and let rest for 10 minutes before slicing and 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.

PORK WELLINGTON



PORK WELLINGTON image

Categories     Game

Yield 2 people

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pork fillet, devided into decent size pieces.
Puff pastry.
parmigiano REggiano, finely grated.
mushrooms.
Onions.
2 garlic.
1 table spoon cream.
1/2 cooking apple diced.

Steps:

  • Heat a large frying pan and drizel with oil. Brown pork on all sides. Let aside to cool. Next cook the onions, garlic, mushrooms and apple until apple is soft. Add cream and then set aside to cool. Mix the cheese into the pastry and roll out. Put the mushroom mixture into the middle of the pastry and add the pork. Use egg wash on other sides of pastry and seal around meat. Put into oven for 20 mins.

Tips:

  • For a perfectly cooked pork tenderloin, use a meat thermometer to ensure it reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
  • If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can check the doneness of the pork by cutting into the center. The meat should be pink but not bloody.
  • To prevent the pastry from becoming soggy, brush the pork tenderloin with beaten egg before wrapping it in prosciutto.
  • Make sure the pastry is tightly wrapped around the pork tenderloin so that the juices don't leak out during cooking.
  • If you don't have time to make your own puff pastry, you can use store-bought puff pastry sheets.
  • To make a gluten-free version of this recipe, use gluten-free puff pastry sheets.
  • Serve the pork Wellington immediately after it comes out of the oven. It can be served with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad.

Pork Wellington is a delicious and impressive dish that is perfect for a special occasion. It's a bit time-consuming to make, but it's well worth the effort. With a little planning and preparation, you can create a pork Wellington that will wow your guests.
