SAVORY PUFF PASTRY WRAPPED PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• I seasoned with salt and pepper and quickly browned all sides of the tenderloin for a total of about 10 mins, remove and let cool.
• Melt butter over medium heat and add apples, onions and garlic. Saute until tender, about another 10 mins, remove from heat and let cool.
• Finely chop the package of herbs, add as much or as little as you prefer.
• Add to the cooling apple mixture.
• Prepare the stuffing according to the box and let cool.
• Roll out the pastry on a floured surface to the size of your tenderloin with extra room on the sides to be able to fold and tuck pastry inches ( I tried to get mine to be 'rectangular' shape but ended up with something that looked more like an ameba lol).
• Cut the tenderloin in half, lengthwise. (This is because a tenderloin is usually fatter at one end.).
• Take one part of the tenderloin and flip it so that one fat end is meeting up with a skinny end, and place in the middle of the pastry. (I left mine a little 'butterflied').
• Top the tenderloin with the stuffing followed by the apple mixture and then if so desired the cheese of your choice.
• Then just gently roll the tenderloin in the pastry, tucking in the ends while you roll.
• Brush with a beaten egg with water all over the top and sides.
• Place seam side down on a baking sheet.
• Bake at 375 for 30-40 mins, or until golden brown.
• Let cool for 10 mins and serve, ENJOY.
• Note: I used one square of puff pastry per tenderloin, I had to make 2 to feed everyone :) But the mixtures will fill both tenderloins, so there is no need to double up.
