Mini Beef Wellington Bites are elegant, bite-sized appetizers featuring tender beef wrapped in flaky puff pastry with a savory mushroom filling and a touch of mustard. Perfect for parties and special occasions, these delicious bites combine rich flavors and a golden, crispy exterior.

Ingredients

Scale

Beef

  • 8 oz beef tenderloin, cut into small cubes

Puff Pastry

  • 1 sheet of puff pastry, thawed

Mushrooms

  • 4 oz mushrooms, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or butter
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Mustard

  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Mushroom Duxelles. In a pan over medium heat, sauté finely chopped mushrooms with olive oil or butter until the moisture evaporates and they become golden and flavorful. Season with salt and pepper, then set aside to cool.
  2. Coat the Beef Cubes. Brush each piece of beef tenderloin lightly with Dijon mustard to enhance flavor and help the pastry stick.
  3. Assemble the Wellington Bites. Roll out the puff pastry sheet and cut into squares large enough to wrap each beef cube. Place a spoonful of mushroom mixture on each pastry square, then the mustard-coated beef cube on top. Fold the pastry around the beef, sealing the edges to form a neat parcel.
  4. Bake Until Golden. Preheat the oven to 400°F (204°C). Place the wrapped beef bites on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for about 15-20 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown and the beef is cooked to your desired doneness.

Notes

  • Use chilled puff pastry to make wrapping easier and to achieve the best flaky texture.
  • You can prepare the mushroom duxelles in advance and store it in the refrigerator.
  • For medium-rare beef, avoid overbaking; adjust time if you prefer more or less doneness.
  • Let the bites rest for a few minutes after baking to allow juices to redistribute.
