My own special Valentines dinner I cooked for myself, because Steve doesn't eat meat!
I made 3 of these, partly because I cooked dinner for Shane our new house mate as well, and because there was 3 pieces of steak in the pack I bought!
Ingredients:
Ready Rolled Puff Pastry
3 Good Quality Steak cuts - I used rib fillet
1 egg - beaten
Salt & Pepper
Paprika
Sauce:
1 small onion - sliced very finely
1 glove garlic - crushed
2 tbsp worchestershire sauce
1/4 cup beef stock
plain flour (for thickening)
1 tbsp butter
parsley
Method:
Pre-heat oven to 180.
Season fillets generously with salt, pepper and paprika.
In a very hot pan, fry fillets each side to seal, set aside to cool.
Turn heat down, add butter and cook onion, add garlic. Season with salt, pepper and paprika, add parsley, stock and worcestershire. Cook through, sprinkle with flour to thicken.
Allow to cool.
On sheet of puff pastry spread sauce where fillet is to sit in the middle, place fillet on pastry, brush with beaten egg, fold pastry in, place on oven sheet seam side down, brush pastry with egg and sprinkle lightly with paprika.
Place in oven for 30-40 minutes.
Seriously, this was delicious!
The fillets just fell apart when touched with a fork.
The sauce ended up like a dianne/onion chutney.
And here's a photo....
