Instructions

1.Preheat the oven to 400°F. In a medium skillet over medium heat, melt 3 tablespoons of butter.
2.Add the sliced mushrooms and chopped onions, and sauté for 5-7 minutes or until they are tender and browned. Transfer the mixture to a small bowl.
3.Using the same skillet over medium-high heat, sear the seasoned beef tenderloin steaks until browned on both sides, for 1-2 minutes per side. Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them cool on a plate.
4.On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry sheets to a thickness of 1/4 inch and cut four 6-inch rounds from each. Spread the liverwurst spread on each round of pastry.
5.Spoon mushroom mixture over the liverwurst, and place a seared steak on top. Brush the edges of the pastry with beaten egg.
6.Fold the pastry to encase the steak, tucking the edges in neatly. Brush the tops of the pastry with more beaten egg.
7.Place the beef Wellingtons on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed.
8.While the Wellingtons are baking, prepare the red wine sauce by melting the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter in a large saucepan over medium heat.
9.Add the chopped shallot and sauté for 1-2 minutes or until tender.
10.Whisk in the all-purpose flour and dried thyme leaves until combined. Slowly stir in the beef broth and red wine, whisking constantly until the sauce has thickened.
11.Reduce the heat to medium-low and let the sauce simmer for 5-7 minutes or until it has reduced to your desired consistency. Serve the beef Wellingtons hot with warm red wine sauce.
