1
Season the beef and sear all over in a very hot pan. Brush with mustard and chill.

Duxelles: cook the mushrooms and shallots in butter until all the moisture evaporates and they turn into a dry paste. Add the thyme and wine and cook until dry. Cool completely.

On plastic wrap, overlap the prosciutto, spread over the duxelles, set the beef on top and roll into a tight log. Chill 30 minutes.

4
Roll out the pastry, unwrap the log onto it and enclose, sealing with egg. Chill 15 minutes, brush with egg and score.
