A simpler take on Beef Wellington, perfect for Mother’s Day or any special occasion! A gorgeous Argentine beef fillet from topped with store bought caramelised onions all wrapped up in serrano ham and crisp flaky pastry
Serves: 3-5
Method
1. Prep the Beef: Season beef with salt & pepper, lightly oil, and sear all sides for 1 min in a hot pan. Let cool completely.
2. Caramelise the Onions: In the same pan, cook caramelised onions until sticky.
3. Assemble: Lay Serrano ham on cling film, spread onions in the center, and place beef on top. Coat beef with mustard, add a small piece of ham on top, then wrap tightly in cling film. Chill for 20 mins.
