  • 100g Brussels pate
  • 500g ready rolled puff pastry

Directions

  • Meanwhile, fry the mushrooms with thyme in 2 tbsp olive oil for 8-10 minutes until softened. Cool
  • Lay Parma Ham slices over a long sheet of clingfilm, overlapping them slightly. Spread a thin layer of pate and then mushrooms over the Parma Ham
  • Position the beef fillet in the centre and wrap the Parma Ham tightly around the beef, twisting the clingfilm ends to tighten. Chill for 30 minutes
