Ingredients

Duck Fat Roast Potatoes

Method

  1. Heat the oven to 200ºC
  2. Place mushrooms into a pan, season with salt and pepper, and cook over a high heat for about 10 mins or until the mushrooms have reduced by about half in size, then spread out on a plate to cool
  3. Heat in a frying pan and add a little olive oil
  4. Season and oil the beef and sear in the hot pan for 30 secs only on each side
  5. Remove the Beef from the pan and leave to cool, then brush all over with mustard
  6. Lay a sheet of cling film on a work surface and arrange the prosciutto slices on it, in slightly overlapping rows
  7. With the back of a fork, spread the mushroom mixture over the prosciutto, and then place the seared beef fillet in the middle
  8. Keeping a tight hold of the cling film from the edge, neatly roll the prosciutto and mushrooms around the Beef to form a tight barrel shape. Twist the ends of the cling film to secure
  9. Chill for 15-20 mins. This will allow the beef to set and keep its shape
  10. Place the puff pastry on a floured surface and roll to a thin layer
  11. Remove the cling film from the beef, and then lay in the centre of pastry
  12. Brush the surrounding pastry with egg yolk
  13. Fold the ends over, and then wrap the pastry around the beef, cutting off any excess
  14. Turn over, so the seam is underneath, and place on a baking sheet. Repeat with each piece of Beef
  15. Brush over all the pastry with egg and chill for about 15 mins to let the pastry rest
  16. If preparing longer ahead of cooking then place all under a damp cloth so pastry doesn’t dry out
  17. Lightly score the pastry at 1cm intervals and glaze again with beaten egg yolk
  18. Bake for 12-15 minutes, then lower the oven setting to 180ºC and cook for another 10mins for medium or longer/shorter depending on how you want each fillet cooked. Make sure pastry is golden brown
  19. Allow to rest for 10-15 mins before slicing and serving with the accompaniments
  20. Slice in half to serve
