Ingredients
For the Beef:
- 1 (3 lb) beef tomahawk
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- Brisket Fixx
- 2 tbsp Motley Mustard
For the Duxelles (Mushroom Mixture):
- 1 lb cremini or button mushrooms, finely chopped
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter
- 2 shallots, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp fresh thyme, chopped
- Salt and pepper to taste
For Assembly:
- 10-12 slices prosciutto
- 2 sheets puff pastry, thawed
- 1 egg yolk, beaten with 1 tbsp water (for egg wash)
- Flour (for dusting)
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Beef
- Pat the Tomahawk dry with paper towels.
- Season generously with Brisket Fixx.
- Heat olive oil in a pan over high heat. Sear the beef on all sides for about 1 minute per side until golden brown.
- Remove from heat, let it cool slightly, then brush the beef with Motley M ustard.
Step 2: Make the Duxelles (Mushroom Mixture)
- In the same pan, melt butter over medium heat.
- Add shallots and garlic, cook until fragrant.
- Stir in mushrooms and cook until all the moisture evaporates (about 10 minutes).
- Add thyme, season with salt and pepper, and let it cool completely.
Step 3: Assemble the Wellington
- Lay a large piece of plastic wrap on a work surface.
- Arrange prosciutto slices slightly overlapping.
- Spread the duxelles evenly over the prosciutto.
- Place the Tomahawk on top, then roll everything up tightly using the plastic wrap.
- Twist the ends to secure and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
Step 4: Wrap in Puff Pastry
- Roll out the puff pastry on a floured surface.
- Remove beef from plastic wrap and place it in the center of the pastry.
- Wrap the pastry around the beef, sealing the edges with egg wash.
- Place seam-side down on a baking sheet. Brush the top with more egg wash and make light decorative cuts with a knife.
- Chill for 15 minutes while preheating the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Step 5: Bake and Serve
- Bake in the preheated oven for 35–40 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 125°F (52°C) for medium-rare.
- Let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
- Serve with red wine sauce or mashed potatoes.
