When I first made this recipe for my family, I wasn’t sure how it would turn out. But after taking the first bite, we knew it was going to be a staple in our household. My husband, who is a bit picky with his food, couldn’t stop raving about how delicious it was. He said that the combination of beef, mushrooms, and thyme was perfect and that the puff pastry was buttery and flaky. And when we added the sweet chili wine sauce, it took the dish to the next level. Since then, we have made this recipe for every special occasion and even for weeknight dinners. It’s a family favorite that we all love.
Ingredients:
- 1 package (490g) Pepperidge Farm Puff Pastry, use both sheets
- 340g Sirloin, thinly sliced and chopped fine (can substitute with ground beef)
- 113g Prosciutto, 8 thin slices
- 437.5g Chopped Mushrooms
- 120g Chopped Yellow Onion
- 2 tablespoons Dijon Mustard
- ½ teaspoon Thyme
- Salt & Black Pepper, to taste
- 2 tablespoons Olive Oil, divided
- 1 Large Egg
- 1 tablespoon Water
Sweet Chili Wine Sauce:
- 150g White Granulated Sugar
- 120ml Water
- 60ml Rice Vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Sherry Wine
- 1 tablespoon Minced Garlic
- 1 teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes
- ½ tablespoon Soy Sauce
- 1 tablespoon Corn Starch
- 2 tablespoon Cold Water
Directions:
Begin by preparing the filling. Use a food processor to blend the chopped mushrooms and onions into fine pieces.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chopped sirloin, mushrooms, onions, and thyme. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the beef is browned. Drain the excess oil if necessary, then stir in the Dijon mustard and set aside.
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
On a clean surface, roll out both puff pastry sheets side by side. Cut each sheet in half from left to right and top to bottom to create 4 equal squares on each sheet.
Place 1 slice of prosciutto diagonally on each square. If needed, fold the prosciutto in half to fit. Spoon the beef mixture into the center of each square, diagonally from the top corner to the bottom corner.
Close the puff pastry by lightly wetting two opposite corner tips and overlapping, pressing to adhere so they do not open during baking.
Place the turnovers on the prepared baking sheet. In a small dish, scramble the egg and water and brush each puff pastry with egg wash. Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
While the turnovers bake, prepare the sweet chili wine sauce. In a saucepan, whisk together all sauce ingredients except for the cold water and cornstarch. Bring to a simmer for about 8 minutes, stirring often. Mix cornstarch and cold water in a small bowl, and add to the saucepan over high heat while constantly stirring as it thickens.
Serve the Beef Wellington Turnovers with Sweet Chili Wine Sauce either as a dipping sauce or by drizzling the sauce over the top. Enjoy!
