Ingredients

4 servings

For the beef

4 beef tenderloin filets (about 4 oz each), patted dry
Ingredient note
Cook all meat thoroughly when pregnant.
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
½ tsp fine sea salt
¼ tsp black pepper

For the duxelles

1 lb cremini mushrooms, roughly chopped
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves
1 tbsp coconut aminos
¼ tsp fine sea salt

For the pastry

2 cups whole spelt flour, plus more for dusting
½ tsp fine sea salt
¾ cup cold unsalted grass-fed butter, cut into ½-inch cubes
5–6 tbsp ice water

For the egg wash

1 egg, beaten
Ingredient note
Eggs are safe during pregnancy as long as they are cooked all the way through.
1 tbsp water

Instructions

1
Pulse the cremini mushrooms in a food processor until very finely chopped, about 10 one-second pulses — the texture should resemble coarse, damp crumbs.
2
Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, for 10–12 minutes until all moisture has evaporated and the mixture is dry and beginning to stick to the pan. Add the garlic and thyme and cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute until fragrant. Stir in the coconut aminos and 1/4 tsp salt, then transfer the duxelles to a plate and spread flat. Refrigerate until completely cool, at least 20 minutes.
