Mini Vegan Beet Wellingtons are an elegant plant-based twist on the classic, pairing whole roasted beets with a rich mushroom, hazelnut and thyme filling, all wrapped in crisp, golden vegan puff pastry. The result is a colorful, individually portioned main that feels festive yet is surprisingly straightforward to prepare, making it ideal for dinner parties, holidays or any occasion where a show-stopping vegan centrepiece is needed.

Ingredients

6 servings:

6 small beets

2 vegan puff pastry sheets

1 shallot

1 clove garlic

100 g brown mushrooms

2 tbsp margarine

50 g hazelnuts

10 g thyme

salt

pepper

Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 180°C Circo Roasting®. Rinse the beets well and place in a baking dish covered with salt (the entire dish should be covered). Bake for approx. 40 min. Then, remove the beets while keeping the oven on, and let sit until cool enough to handle. Peel chilled beets with a paring knife.

Step 2

In the meantime, peel and finely dice shallots and garlic. Cube brown mushrooms. Melt half of the margarine in a frying pan on Induction Hob heat setting 6 and sauté the mushrooms, shallots, and garlic for approx. 10 min.

Step 3

Transfer hazelnuts to a pan on Induction Hob heat setting 6 and toast until aromatic. Pulse toasted hazelnuts in a food processor until finely ground and mix with the mushroom mixture and thyme leaves. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Step 4

Roll out the puff pastry sheets and cut into equal-sized circles, according to the size of your beets. Place one tablespoon of the mushroom mixture into the centre of each circle and place a beetroot on top. Fold puff pastry around the beet and seal. Place with the sealed side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. In a pan on Induction Hob heat setting 6 melt the remaining margarine and brush each Wellington. Bake at 180°C Circo Roasting® for approx. 30 min., or until golden brown. Once ready, serve and enjoy!
