Instructions
Heat oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat.
Add mushrooms and rosemary; saut 3 minutes or until browned. Stir in pepper and 1/8 teaspoon sea salt. Set aside.
Whisk together egg and 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl.
Roll 1 puff pastry sheet into a 9- x 12-inch rectangle on a lightly floured work surface.
Cut into 12 (3-inch) squares. Arrange 1 beef cube in the center of each pastry square, and sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt. Top each beef cube with about 1/2 teaspoon Boursin cheese and 1 mushroom slice.
Brush edges of pastry squares with egg mixture. Fold dough corners over filling in the center to make a packet, pinching to seal.
Place on a large, parchment paperlined baking sheet. Repeat with remaining ingredients, and brush all with remaining egg mixture.
Bake 9 minutes or until pastry is puffed and golden brown.
