Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease six 6-ounce ramekins with butter and arrange on a baking sheet.
  2. Roll out the thawed puff pastry to 1/8-inch thick and cut out circles slightly larger than the rims of your ramekins.
  3. In a skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter over medium heat. Cook 1 diced onion until translucent, about 4 minutes.
  4. Stir in minced garlic and mixed mushrooms, sautéing until golden brown, approximately 8–10 minutes.
  5. Sprinkle in 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour and thyme. Cook for another 2 minutes to form a roux.
  6. Gradually add 1 cup of vegetable broth, stirring continuously. Bring to simmer, then add 1 cup of heavy cream.
  7. Season the mixture with salt and black pepper to taste.
  8. Divide the mushroom mixture among the ramekins and sprinkle Gruyère cheese on top.
  9. Place puff pastry rounds over each ramekin, pinching to seal edges. Brush with beaten egg.
  10. Bake in preheated oven for 15–20 minutes until pastry is golden brown.
  11. Cool for about 10 minutes before serving.
