• See 'Top Roast Tips'! (bottom left). Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. • Finely chop button mushrooms, onion (see ingredients) and garlic. Pick and finely chop rosemary. • Whisk egg. • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and onion and cook until browned and softened, 8-10 minutes. • Add garlic and rosemary, and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl and season to taste.
• In a small microwave-safe bowl, place half the butter and microwave in 10 second bursts until melted. • Return frying pan to high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Season premium fillet steak all over, then add to hot pan. • Sear steak until browned, 1 minute on all sides. Transfer to a plate.
• On a lined oven tray, evenly stack 5 sheets of filo pastry, brushing with melted butter between each layer (two separate stacks for 4 people). • Place half the mushroom mixture in the centre. Top with steak and remaining mushroom mixture then carefully fold pastry edges over, rolling to make a log. Lightly score in a criss cross pattern and brush with beaten egg. • Roast wellington for 20-25 minutes for medium or until cooked to your liking.
• Meanwhile, bring a medium saucepan of water to the boil. Peel potato and cut into large chunks. Trim green beans. • Cook potato in boiling water for 6 minutes. Place a colander or steamer basket on top and add green beans. • Cover and steam until beans are tender, and potatoes are easily pierced with a fork, another 7-8 minutes. • Transfer green beans to a bowl. Season and cover to keep warm. Drain potatoes and return to saucepan. Add the milk, remaining butter and a pinch of salt and mash until smooth.
• Boil the kettle. • In a medium heatproof bowl, combine gravy granules, Worcestershire sauce and the boiling water (1/2 cup for 2 people / 1 cup for 4 people), whisking, until smooth, 1 minute. Season with pepper.
• Divide beef and mushroom wellington, mashed potato and steamed green beans between plates. • Pour over Worcestershire gravy to serve. Enjoy!
