How To Make Beef Wellington

When you think of Beef Wellington, oftentimes the first name that comes to mind is Gordon Ramsay. But first, what the heck is it? You essentially sear the beef before wrapping it in layers of duxelles, prosciutto, and pastry. In essence, you sear a beef tenderloin (basically a long filet mignon) before wrapping it in layers of duxelles (minced mushroom blend), prosciutto, and pastry. This dish that originated in England is known by many to be one of the most daunting recipes for any home cook...but I'm going to show you that it's not that bad after all.

Ingredients:
1.5-pound beef tenderloin
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
salt and pepper to taste
2 sheets puff pastry
6 slices prosciutto
2 egg yolks + water (egg wash)
flaky salt to taste
finely chopped chives (garnish)

Duxelles:
1 pound assorted mushrooms
2 shallots
3-4 cloves garlic
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 tablespoons red wine
3 bay leaves
salt and pepper to taste

Crepe:
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tbsp granulated sugar
2 eggs
pinch of salt

Mustard:
3 tbsp brown mustard seeds
3 tbsp yellow mustard seeds
1/3 cup white wine vinegar
1/3 cup white wine
1 tbsp minced shallot
salt and pepper to taste
pinch of allspice

Chicken Stock:
2 tbsp butter
6 sprigs thyme
1/2 cup chopped shallots
1/3 cup red wine
1.5 cups reduced chicken stock

Gordon Ramsey is watching this like a proud dad seeing how far Nick has come

[thegoldenbalance]

You sir, are what they call: built different 😈

[TheNamelessFractal]

Idk why but seeing Nick and Pesto eating together is one of the most wholesome things I've ever seen

[arminsmajic]

Nick and Pesto sitting and eating together is the thing that made my heart filled with happines.Hope you make more vids with Pesto.

[irishpotato]

His relationship with pesto is better than any relationship I’ve ever had

[purplepanda]

Nick: I’m gonna use a garlic presser because I’m lazy

Also Nick: makes literally everything from scratch

[blakeboyette]

Nick: says he is lazy

Also nick: makes almost everything from scratch

I made this but instead of beef tenderloin, I used a beef tender chuck because it is 1/10 of the price. I seared and then Sous vide the meat at 130 for 22-ish hours and then seared again and made the recipe like normal and baked at 350 for ten minutes and 425 until brown and it turned out incredible. The meat was super tender which I was initially worried about. I highly recommend this recipe. Very good.

Nick's relationship with pesto is so adorable😂

[JornsonJorny]

Most people: Cry and blame onions
Nick: crying because of onions but blames emotions

[NickDiGiovanni]

"we're not filming right"

"If you are daring enough to make homemade Beef Wellington, you're already a pro and fearless in my book" Nick let me tell ya, I did Beef Wellington for the first time last sunday and what you just said will forever stick with me. Those words were amazing, thank you!!!

I WOULD ONCE AGAIN BATTLE ALL OF HELL FOR PESTO

[jamescloward]

Who couldn't like Nick? Such a passionate, down to earth guy. I love his videos and cooking tips. Such a cool person. 👍

[primetimedj]

Who watches and cooks none of the food but just loves watching him make it and how beautiful it looks at the end

[ronakpai]

Thank you so much! I just made a Wellington with my mom for thanksgiving and I followed this video. It turned out better than I expected! I love your videos.

[indianOutlaw.]

I can’t believe you didn’t grow your own mushrooms and cow

[sharpenedaxe]

I wish Gordon would react to this. Truly amazing Nick!

[CHEFPKR]

Can we do a wellington but hotdogs in the middle? Not even one big one, like 12 ball parks.

Nick you are the best chef I've ever seen. I used to think gordon ramsey was my idol. He's really a great chef. At 66 years old I'm a home cook that needs lots of help. I know it's not going to be possible but man it would be a dream to be able to cook with you. You have a way of making me want to cook more every time I watch you. I truly believe you could very well be one of the world's best chefs. So young and so talented. I'm retired and on a limited budget but I'm trying to build my kitchen. Wusthof knives, cast iron pans, really good non stick pans and when I get some extra money maybe a mixer, food processor, and blender. That's probably going to take me awhile. Keep it up Nick. You're going to be the all time most popular you tuber ever. That wellington looks so damn good makes me want to run out tomorrow and get all the ingredients. 😍
