- Roll out the puff pastry slightly. Sprinkle the beef cubes with salt and pepper. Place 2 teaspoons of the Wellington Filling in the center of each puff pastry square. Top the filling with 1 cube of beef. Fold the edges of the pastry over the beef and crimp to seal the filling inside. Place on a greased baking sheet and brush with beaten egg.

- Transfer the mixture to a large bowl and allow to cool before folding in the Dijon and pâté.
Port Wine Cherry Sauce:
- Combine the port, sugar, rosemary and 1 tablespoon black pepper in a saucepan and cook until reduced by one-third. Add the cherries and continue to reduce by another third. Add the butter and mix into the wine reduction with a stick blender.
