Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.

  2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook until translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.

  3. Add the chopped mushrooms to the skillet and sauté until they release their moisture and start to brown, about 8-10 minutes.

  4. Stir in the chopped chestnuts and thyme leaves. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.

  5. Unroll the puff pastry sheet on a clean surface. Spoon the mushroom and chestnut mixture along the center of the pastry sheet, leaving a border around the edges.

  6. Fold the sides of the puff pastry over the filling, tucking and sealing the edges to form a neat parcel. Place the Wellington seam-side down on the prepared baking tray.

  7. Brush the top of the Wellington with the beaten egg to create a golden-brown finish when baked.

  8. Make a few small slits on the top of the pastry to allow steam to escape during baking. This will prevent the Wellington from getting too soggy.

  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.

  10. Once baked, remove the Double Chestnut Mushroom Wellington from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing. Garnish with fresh parsley for a pop of color and added freshness.
