Steps

  • Preheat the oven to 180°C.
  • Pulse flour and butter in a food processor until it resembles breadcrumbs.
  • Pulse in egg and enough water to form a dough, then knead gently and chill.
  • Sear the steak in a pan with 15ml of olive oil for one minute per side.
  • Fry garlic and mushrooms in the same pan with remaining oil for 4 minutes.
  • Roll out the pastry into a thin oblong shape.
  • Layer ham, steak, mushroom mixture, and Gorgonzola onto the pastry.
  • Wrap the ham around the steak filling and fold the pastry over it.
  • Seal the pastry edges with beaten egg and trim any excess.
  • Brush with egg and bake on a tray for 15 minutes until golden.
  • Sauté shallot, garlic, and thyme in butter, then reduce with red wine.
  • Serve the Wellington sliced open with the sauce drizzled around.
