This link and recipe was given to me by my foodie son. It is fantastic and so easy.  We teamed it with  pan fried sirloin steak with pink peppercorn whiskey sauce.


Take a look at the video link below:

Ingredients

Knob of butter (approx 20g)
Thyme
Peeled French shallots approx 12 or however many you need
120 g pancetta
1 tablespoon brown sugar

I sheet puff pastry (I absolutely recommend Creme puff pastry - available from good delis)
1 egg (for egg wash)

Method

Follow the video but basically melt the large knob of butter.
Once the butter starts to foam add the shallots and thyme.
Toss to combine and coat in the butter.
After 5 minutes, add the pancetta.
Cook for a further 5 mins.
Tip mixture into a shallow oven proof dish.
Top with puff pastry cut to size, brush with egg wash.
Cook in a preheated oven to 200 degrees for approx 25 mins.

Absolutely delish
