Recipe for pork wellington
Beef Wellington is one of the most festive dishes you can make: It looks impressive when it appears on the table, and it tastes fantastic!
I decided to try making the classic Wellington with pork tenderloin instead of beef. It was served with potato roses, mushroom/cream sauce, cabbage salad with fresh berries and vinaigrette, good bread, and a damn good red wine!
I made four at once, but here you get the recipe for a single pork wellington. However, I would say you might as well make several at once since the time is about the same—and a single one is only enough for about 2 people.
Pork Wellington recipe

Ingredients
- 1 Pork Tenderloin
- Mustard for brushing
- 150 Mushroom
- 1 Onion
- 2 cloves Garlic
- Salt and Pepper from mill
- Puff Pastry
- 1 package Parma Ham
- Egg for brushing
Instructions
- Take the tenderloin out of the refrigerator a quarter of an hour in advance.
-
Very quickly brown the tenderloin on the pan over smoking high heat.
-
Put the browned tenderloin in a vacuum bag.
-
Vacuum pack the bag.
- Place the pork tenderloin in your sous vide and let it cook for 1 hour at 58°.
- Then take the meat out of the water bath and unpack it from the bag.
- Dry the meat well.
- Wrap the meat and place it in the freezer for 1 hour.
-
Finely chop mushrooms, onions, and garlic in a food processor and season with salt and pepper.
-
Put the mushroom mixture in a dry pan and let it boil. All moisture must evaporate, so the mixture ends up being completely dark.
- Place cling film on the kitchen counter and arrange the Parma ham in a square.
- Spread the mushroom mixture on the Parma ham.
- Take the pork tenderloin out of the freezer and brush the surface with mustard.
-
Place the pork tenderloin on top of the mushroom mixture.
-
Roll it all up with the help of the cling film.
- Place the roll in the fridge for 30 minutes to "set".
-
Remove the film and place the roll on the puff pastry.
-
Roll the puff pastry around the roll and brush with plenty of egg.
-
Score the puff pastry with a knife and bake in the oven for 20 - 25 minutes at 200°C fan oven until it looks golden and crispy.
- Take your finished pork Wellington out of the oven and serve!
