Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Soak the dried porcini mushrooms in boiling water for 15-20 minutes until rehydrated.
  2. Combine fresh mushrooms, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, thyme, and a touch of salt in a roasting pan. Roast for 20 minutes alongside wrapped garlic.
  3. Sauté chopped onion with 1 tablespoon of olive oil until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in lentils, chopped porcini, nuts, red wine, and mushroom liquid. Simmer for 5-7 minutes.
  4. Blend roasted mushrooms and garlic in a food processor until minced. Combine with breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, and season to taste.
  5. Roll out the puff pastry. Place mushroom filling in the center, wrap the pastry around it, sealing edges with an egg wash.
  6. Brush the pastry with egg wash and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until golden brown. Cool for 10 minutes before slicing.
