MESHOD • Pre-heat the oven to 200 °C/gas mark 6. Heat some oil in a large pan and quickly fry the seasoned beef all over until it’s brown. Remove and allow to cool.

Twist the ends to secure the cling film. • Refrigerate for 10 -15 minutes. • Roll out the pastry quite thinly to a size which will cover your beef. Unwrap the meat from the cling film. Egg wash the edge of the pastry and place the beef in the middle. • Roll up the pastry and fold neatly to the ‘underside’. Turnover and egg wash over the top. Chill again to let the pastry cool, approximately 5 minutes. Egg wash again before baking at for 35 – 40 minutes.
