Steak & Blue Cheese En Croûte Recipe
Ingredients:
- 4 steak fillets
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 4 tbsp blue cheese
- 2 sheets of puff pastry
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1 tbsp olive oil
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F) and season the steak fillets with salt and pepper.
- In a hot pan, sear the steaks for 1-2 minutes on each side, then set aside to cool.
- Roll out the puff pastry sheets on a floured surface and cut into squares large enough to encase each steak.
- Place a tablespoon of blue cheese in the center of each pastry square, then top with a steak fillet.
- Fold the pastry over the steak, sealing the edges with beaten egg.
- Place the wrapped steaks on a baking tray lined with parchment paper, brush with olive oil, and make a few small slits on top.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown and the steak is cooked to your liking.
- Remove from the oven and let rest for a few minutes before serving.
