- Tie the fillet of beef at regular intervals with string so that it stays in a neat shape during cooking.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of the sunflower oil in a large frying pan, and cook the beef over a high heat for about 10 minutes, until brown on all sides.
- Transfer to a roasting pan, bake for 20 minutes. Leave to cool.Heat the remaining oil in a frying pan and cook the mushrooms and garlic for about 5 minutes.
- Beat the mushroom mixture into the pate with the parsley, season well. Set aside to cool. Roll out the pastry in a sheet large enough to enclose the beef, plus a strip to spare.
- Trim off the spare pastry, trim the other edges to neaten. Spread the pate mix down the middle of the pastry. Untie the beef and lay it on the pate.
- Preheat the oven to 425. Brush the edges of the pastry with beaten egg and fold it over the meat to enclose it in a neat parcel.
- Place the parcel on a baking sheet with the join in the pastry underneath. Cut leaf shapes from the reserved pastry.
- Brush the parcel with egg, garnish with pastry leaves. Chill for 10 minutes.
- Bake the Beef Wellington for 50-60 minutes, covering it loosely with foil after about 30 minutes to prevent the pastry from burning.
- Serve cut into thick slices garnished with parsley.
