Preparation
- Season the meat and sear it in the pan over high heat.
- Let it rest on paper on the workbench.
- Finely chop the shallots and sauté in the pan, then add the finely chopped mushrooms. Cook over low heat until all the moisture has evaporated.
- Make the crêpes and let everything cool.
- Meanwhile, take the puff pastry out of the fridge and let it come to temperature.
- Add the chopped herbs to the mushrooms.
- Place two layers of cling film on the workbench (larger than the pastry) and make a long strip of crêpes on it.
- Spread the mushroom mixture over it.
- Place the meat at the beginning in the middle to then make a tight roll.
- Let this rest in the fridge for 20 minutes.
- Now cut off 2/3 of the pastry and place the meat so that it can be tightly wrapped in the pastry as a whole.
- Place on a baking tray and brush with the egg yolks.
- Make a lattice from the rest of the pastry using a lattice roller. Place this over the pastry and brush. Sprinkle with some Maldon salt for a nice crunch.
- Let the roll rest for 10 minutes and then place in a preheated oven at 186°C with 20% humidity until the core of the meat reaches a temperature of 48°C.
- Let the meat rest for 10 minutes after baking before slicing. The meat will then have a temperature of about 52°C.
