Vegan Mushroom Chestnut Wellington made approachable with clear cues, pantry staples, and flexible swaps.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups mixed mushrooms chopped
  • 1 cup cooked chestnuts chopped
  • 1 onion finely chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 sheet puff pastry thawed
  • Plant-based milk for brushing

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onions and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes.
  • Add minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
  • Stir in the chopped mushrooms and cook for 8-10 minutes until they release their moisture and start to brown.
  • Add chestnuts, soy sauce, thyme, and black pepper. Stir to combine and cook for another 5 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and let the filling cool slightly.
  • Roll out the puff pastry on a floured surface to fit a baking dish, about 1/4 inch thick.
  • Place the filling in the center of the rolled pastry, then fold the pastry over the filling and seal the edges.
  • Transfer the Wellington to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the top with plant-based milk.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, until golden and puffed.
  • Let the Wellington rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
