Directions: |
Directions:Place room temperature beef roast on a rack in a shallow pan. Bake at 425º for 30 minutes. Cool then trim off all fat. Let stand.
Prepare pastry and cover.
Prepare Duxelles: Saute mushrooms and onions in butter until liquid evaporates, stir in salt and herbs. Add flour, then broth and cook stirring until thickened. Stir in parsley and minced ham. Cool.
Roll out pastry 3 inches longer than roast and 12-13 inches wide. Spread cooled Duxelles on pastry rectangle to within 1 inch of edges. Place roast on center of pastry and seal edges around roast. Trim ends so that only a single layer of pastry remains on ends.
