Preheat the oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, Worcestershire sauce, diced onion, salt, and black pepper. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.
Form the mixture into 4 oval-shaped patties, roughly 1 inch thick.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and sear the patties for 2β3 minutes per side until browned (they don't need to be fully cooked as they will finish cooking in the oven). Remove from the skillet and set aside to cool slightly.
Roll out the puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface and cut each sheet into two rectangles, for a total of four pieces.
Place one patty on each piece of pastry. Fold the pastry over the patty and pinch the edges to seal, trimming off any excess pastry.
Place the pastry-wrapped patties seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to make an egg wash. Brush the tops of the pastry with the egg wash for a golden finish.
Bake for 20β25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed.
While the pastries are baking, prepare the mushroom gravy. In the same skillet used to sear the patties, melt the butter over medium heat.
Add the sliced mushrooms and sautΓ© for 5β7 minutes until they are softened and browned.
Sprinkle the flour over the mushrooms, stirring to coat them evenly, and cook for 1 minute to remove the raw flour taste.
Gradually stir in the beef broth and soy sauce, whisking constantly to prevent lumps, and bring to a simmer.
Simmer the gravy for 5β7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened to your liking.
Remove the pastries from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Serve warm with the mushroom gravy poured over the top or on the side for dipping.
