Categories     Beef

Yield 40 hors d'ocuvre

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 medium shallot (about 1/2 ounce) peeled
6 ounces mushrooms halved if large
1 1/4 sticks unsalted butter, melted
salt and freshly ground black pepper
10 thin sheets phyllo pastry, each 17 by 12 inches
8 ounces fillet of beef, trimmed and cut into 1 1/2 by 1/2 by 1/2 inch pieces
Bearnaise Sauce:
1/4 cup fresh tarragon leaves or 2 teaspoons dried
1 medium shallot, peeled
1/4 cup tarragon vinegar
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 large egg yolks
1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter,melted
1/8 teaspoon salt
pinch cayenne
Chop the tarragon finely about 10 seconds. Drop the shallot through the feed tube of a processer with the motor running and process until finely chopped. Combine the tarragon, shallot, vinegar and pepper in a small sauce pan and cook over moderate heat until reduced to 2 tablespoons about 3 minutes. Process the egg yolks until combined and with the motor running slowly drizzle the hot butter thru the tube. When the mixture is thick and the butter is incorporated, add the tarragon mixture salt and cayenne pulse to combine

Steps:

  • Drop the shallot through the feed tube of a food processor with the metal blade and the motor running and chop finely, about 10 seconds. Add the mushrooms and chop finely about 10 pulses. Saute the shallot and mushrooms in 2 tablespoons butter over moderate heat until the mixture is dry, about 8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and cool. Cut each phyllo sheet into four 17 by 3 inch strips and cover with plastic warp. Working with 1 phyllo strip at a time, brush with butter and put a piece of beef and 1 1/2 teaspoons mushroom mixture on 1 end 1/2 inch from the edge. Fold the 1/2 inch of phyllo over the filling and roll over several times. Fold in the sides and continue rolling and folding up to the opposite end. Place seam side down on a baking sheet and brush lightly with butter. Repeat with the remaining ingredients Pre heat oven to 375 degrees. Bake in the center of the oven for 10 to 12 minutes or until golden brown. Cool slightly.

I'm not a huge fan of beef Wellington, but I have to say, these bite-sized versions were pretty darn good!

These were a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less salt next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my pastry didn't puff up. Any suggestions?

I thought these were just okay. The pastry was a bit too thick for my taste and the beef was a little dry.

Loved these! The only thing I did differently was use puff pastry instead of phyllo dough.

These bite-sized beef Wellingtons were a hit at my last dinner party! The combination of flaky pastry, tender beef, and savory filling was divine. I especially loved the pop of flavor from the mushrooms and onions.
