- 4 sheets of filo pastry

- On a clean worktop, lay out one sheet of filo pastry and brush with melted butter
- Place another sheet directly over the top, brush with butter and repeat until you have a stack of 4 sheets
- Spread your mushroom mixture over the centre of the filo pastry
- Pat the fillet dry with a paper towel and place in the centre of the pastry
- Wrap the filo pastry around the pork and tuck the edges in so it is a neatly wrapped parcel
