Layer 12 pieces phyllo, brushing (or spreading with hands) each layer with melted butter. Spread about 1/2 mushroom mixture on pastry and place seared beef on top; place remaining mixture on top of beef and fold dough around. Prepare additional 5-6 layers pastry. Seal all edges by overlapping them with this additional pastry and brush with butter. Place beef on buttered baking pan and bake 40-45 or until pastry is brown and flaky.
