Ingredients

Pastry:

1 1/4 cups flour

1 stick of cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces

1/8 tsp. sea salt

2 tablespoons cold water

1 egg, lighlty beaten (for glaze)

Meat:

1 pound boneless pork tenderloin

sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

1/2 cup dijon mustard

1 tbsp fresh tarragon, chopped

Directions

To make the pastry:

Place the flour and salt in a food processor and add pieces of butter, pulsing until mixture is the texture of oatmeal. Add the cold water and mix until it just comes together into a ball. Wrap in plastic and chill for at least an hour, or overnight.

For the meat:

Season the pork with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, with a little oil in it, brown the tenderloin on all sides on moderate to high heat. Set aside to cool.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

On a floured board, roll out pastry in a rectangle large enough to encase the roast. Spread mustard on pastry and sprinkle with tarragon. Place pork in center and seal ends of pastry around the roast. Place seam side down on a parchment lined baking sheet. Brush pastry with beaten egg and bake for 20 minutes or until the internal temperature is 140 degrees. Then let it rest at least 10 minutes.

I simply served mine with a balsamic reduction and roasted asparagus. Enjoy :-)
