What Is a Beef Wellington
Yes! And you don’t need a cooking degree. The secret is delegation. Use good store-bought puff pastry (trust me, it’s a lifesaver). Get your butcher to trim the beef fillet. You just have to sear, spread, and wrap.
It’s like a grown-up arts and crafts project. You spread the mushroom glue, you roll the prosciutto blanket, and then you wrap the whole thing in pastry like a present. A delicious, golden present.
The first time you pull a perfectly puffed Wellington out of the oven, you will feel like a kitchen wizard. You’ll want to take a photo. You’ll want to brag. And you totally should.
