Method
step 1
Heat the air fryer to its highest setting. Brush the steaks with oil and season with salt. Cook for 4 mins, then remove from the air fryer and leave to cool completely. Meanwhile, take the pastry out of the fridge and set aside at room temperature for 10 mins.
step 2
Lay two sheets of Parma ham in a cross and put a beef fillet in the centre. Repeat with the remaining ham and beef fillet. Spoon the pâté on top (if you can, round it a little to make a dome) then fold the ham over to make two parcels.
step 3
Open out the pastry and cut in half. Put the wrapped fillets on the end of each pastry rectangle, then brush the surrounding pastry with a little water. Fold the pastry over and gently press down around the beef with your hands, trying to make sure there’s no trapped air. Use a small knife to trim away the excess pastry (leave as a rectangle or shape into an oval), then seal the edges with a fork.
step 4
Heat the air fryer to 180C. Brush the parcels with beaten egg and cook for 15 mins for medium, or 20 mins for well done. Leave to rest for a few mins before serving.
