Directions:
Pre heat oven to 425. Rub the filet with mustard on all sides, then sprinkle salt pepper and thyme on them. Melt butter in small skillet and sear filet on all sides, about 5 minutes. Cool to room temperature.

Place filets on baking sheet and top with pate or duxelles
Cut out 2, 4-5 in circles of pastry, you want it big enough to cover the filet and touch the baking sheet. Drape the pastry on the filet and pinch together at the bottom in 4-5 places to enclose the filet. Trim off any edges that drape on the pan. Wisk the egg and milk together and brush on pastry. Decorate top with cut outs from pastry trimmings if desired.

Bake 15 minutes for Med Rare, serve immediately on a puddle of Creamed Mushroom sauce. Recipe in Sauces.

Duxelles is a mixture of finely chopped mushrooms, shallots and thyme, slowly cooked in butter until it is a thick paste.
