  • 30 ml (2 tbsp) of vegetable oil
  • 60 ml (1/4 cup) of coarsely chopped almonds
  • 80 ml (1/3 cup) of chopped green olives

Preparations

  1. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork tenderloin well and set aside to cool.
  2. In a bowl, mix the ingredients for the savory crepes.
  3. Heat a little vegetable oil in a medium-sized non-stick pan over medium heat.
  4. Cook 5 crepes, one ladle at a time, and set aside.
     
  5. In another skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat and sweat the shallot for a few minutes. Add the minced garlic and chopped mushrooms. Cook for 6 to 8 minutes until the mushrooms are dry.
  6. Deglaze with the white wine and let reduce until completely evaporated. Transfer to a bowl and let cool completely.
  7. Mix the duxelles with the raw meat of the roasted onion sausage. Stir in the olives and almonds, and mix well. Keep the mixture aside until assembly.
  8. Preheat the oven to 375°F.
  9. On plastic wrap, place the slices of prosciutto side by side, overlapping to form a rectangle as large as the puff pastry sheets.
  10. Place three crepes on the prosciutto.
  11. Spread half of the duxelles over the crepes.
  12. Place the pork tenderloin on the duxelles and cover with the remaining duxelles.
    Place the remaining crepes on top of the duxelles.
  13. Using the plastic wrap, roll it tightly into a thick log.
  14. Place one puff pastry sheet on the work surface and place the unwrapped log on the pastry.
  15. Brush the edges of the pastry with the beaten egg yolk.
  16. Wrap the log with the pastry and seal tightly. Brush the pastry with the remaining egg yolk.
  17. Using a lattice roller, shape the other puff pastry sheet.
  18. Wrap the pork Wellington again with the lattice.
  19. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and place the pork Wellington on it.
  20. Let rest for 20 minutes, then bake for 35 minutes or until an internal temperature of 140°F is reached. Let rest for another 20 minutes.
  21. Carefully slice the pork Wellington and serve with your preferred garnish and sauce.
