Prep
- Make the mushroom duxelle. Fry onion and shallots in butter, add garlic, dried herbs and seasoning. Add mushrooms and cook until soft. Blend the mixture to a coarse consistency. Put back into the pan and cook on a low heat until the mixture has thickened and there is no excess water. Cool in the fridge.
- Blanch the cabbage leaves in boiling water and chill immediately in iced water to retain the deep colour. Set aside.
- Place on a baking sheet and bake in the oven until melted & golden.
- Season the pork fillets, sear in a pan for a golden colour all over. Set aside to rest.
To Make the Apple & Mustard Sauce
- Cook the apple, onion and garlic in butter until softened. Add the chicken stock and simmer for 10- 15 minutes until reduced by a third. Add the cream, mustard and sage. Season to taste.
To Make The Wellington
- Overlap 2 pieces of cling film on a large chopping board. Lay the prosciutto slices along the cling film in 2 rows, slightly overlapping. Layer the cabbage leaves on top. Brush the pork fillets lightly with Dijon mustard and lay on top of the cabbage. Spread the mushroom duxelle on top and around the fillets. Carefully roll tightly in the cling film and twist both ends. Chill in the fridge.
- Lightly dust the work surface with flour, cut a piece of puff pastry, enough to roll around your wellington filling.
- Remove wellington filling from the cling film and lay onto the pastry, roll the pastry tightly around the fillets. Ensure the ends are sealed. Score the top of the wellington and brush with beaten egg yolk. Rest in the fridge for 30-60 minutes.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 200°c / Gas 6 / 180°c in a fan oven for 35-40 minutes until golden. Allow to rest for 10 minutes before carving.
