Ingredients
For the pastry, you will need:
2 cups of all-purpose flour
1 tsp of salt
1 cup of unsalted butter, cold
1/4 cup of ice water
For the mushroom filling, you will need:
2 tbsp of olive oil
2 cloves of garlic, minced
1 onion, diced
16 oz of mushrooms, sliced
1/2 tsp of thyme
1/2 tsp of salt
1/4 tsp of black pepper
1/4 cup of breadcrumbs
1/4 cup of grated parmesan cheese
1 egg, beaten
Instructions
Step 1: Make the pastry
In a large bowl, combine the flour and salt. Cut the butter into small pieces and add it to the bowl. Use a pastry cutter or your hands to work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the ice water and mix until the dough comes together.
Step 2: Chill the pastry
Form the dough into a ball, wrap it in plastic wrap, and chill it in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
Step 3: Make the mushroom filling
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and onion and cook until soft. Add the mushrooms, thyme, salt, and pepper. Cook until the mushrooms release their liquid and it evaporates. Stir in the breadcrumbs and parmesan cheese.
Step 4: Roll out the pastry
Preheat the oven to 400°F. On a floured surface, roll out the pastry into a rectangle that is about 1/4 inch thick.
Step 5: Assemble the Wellington
Spread the mushroom filling evenly over the pastry, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges. Brush the edges with beaten egg. Roll the pastry up tightly, starting from the long side. Pinch the ends to seal.
Step 6: Bake the Wellington
Place the Wellington seam-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the top with beaten egg. Bake for 40 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and crisp.
