Step #4 Remove & leave until cold.
Step #5 Melt the remaining butter in a saucepan.

Step #7 Add the mushrooms & cook for about 15 mins until some of the liquid has evaporated.
Step #8 Remove from the heat, season & leave until cold.
Step #9 Increase oven temperature to 230C/450F/Gas8.
Step #10 Roll out the pastry into a rectangle large enough to enclose the beef.
Step #11 Place on a baking sheet.
Step #12 Spread half the mushroom mixture down the centre of the pastry.
Step #13 Place the beef on top, then top this with the remaining mushroom mixture.
Step #14 Brush the edges of the pastry with egg & wrap the pastry round the meat, pressing the long edges together firmly & tucking in the short ends to seal.
Step #15 Use trimmings to make pastry leaves to decorate.
Step #16 Brush all over with beaten egg, then cook in the oven for about 40 mins, cover with foil wrap for the last 10 mins so the pastry stays golden brown.
