Last night we had something like a beef wellington, but with pork fillet instead, cause pork is cheap here at the moment.

I wrapped the fillet in bacon then fried it, then laid out the pastry and spread a desert plum and pepperberry jam over it. Then wrapped the cooled meat in it. Baked for about 30 mins. It was nice. I also served lightly steamed green veges with cheese sauce, and something I call a pumpkin puff, which didn't quite turn out how I was hoping, but pretty close. Basically it's just mashed pumpkin mixed up to a kind of batter with SR flour and baking powder with a bit of chicken stock, then into a pan to bake with cheese on the top. Oh, I folded a couple of whipped egg whites into it too. So almost a kind of souffle, but not quite.
