Indulge in these Air Fryer Beef Wellington Bites, a rich twist on a classic. Perfectly seasoned with a creamy mushroom sauce.
Ingredients
- • beef fillet: 1 pound, cut into 1-inch cubes
- • puff pastry sheets: 1 package, thawed
- • olive oil: 2 tablespoons
- • salt: 1 teaspoon
- • black pepper: 1 teaspoon
- • garlic powder: 1/2 teaspoon
- • egg: 1, beaten
- • mushrooms: 1 cup, finely chopped
- • heavy cream: 1/2 cup
- • butter: 2 tablespoons
- • shallot: 1, minced
- • Worcestershire sauce: 1 tablespoon
- • fresh thyme: 1 teaspoon, chopped
Instructions
- 1 Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
- 2 Season the beef fillet cubes with olive oil, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Toss to coat evenly.
- 3 Roll out the thawed puff pastry and cut into 3-inch squares. Place a beef cube in the center of each square, then wrap the pastry around the beef, sealing the edges with a bit of beaten egg.
- 4 Place the wrapped beef bites seam-side down in the air fryer basket, making sure they don't touch. Brush the tops with the remaining beaten egg.
- 5 Air fry the beef bites for 10-12 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown and crispy.
- 6 While the bites are cooking, prepare the mushroom sauce. In a pan over medium heat, melt the butter and sauté the shallot until translucent. Add the chopped mushrooms and cook until browned.
- 7 Stir in the Worcestershire sauce, fresh thyme, and heavy cream. Simmer for a few minutes until the sauce thickens slightly. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- 8 Serve the Beef Wellington Bites hot, drizzled with the creamy mushroom sauce.
Serving Suggestions
- • These Air Fryer Beef Wellington Bites pair beautifully with a side of buttery mashed potatoes or a crisp green salad to balance the richness. For a beverage, consider serving with a robust red wine like a Cabernet Sauvignon, which complements the beef and earthy mushroom flavors wonderfully. For a touch of freshness, garnish with a sprinkle of fresh parsley or chives. If you're hosting a party, these bites make for an impressive appetizer that's sure to wow your guests.
Storage Tips
Store any leftover Beef Wellington Bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat them in the air fryer at 350°F (175°C) for about 5 minutes to maintain their crispy texture. The mushroom sauce can be stored separately in the fridge and gently reheated on the stovetop.
