Ingredients

Servings
  • 500 g mushrooms (fresh or frozen) - 5 cups
  • 1 onion
  • 3 garlic cloves
  • 2 tablespoon butter for frying
  • ¼ cup butter for topping the pate
  • 2 tablespoon butter soften for mixing with the mushrooms
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon parsley fresh

Instructions

  1. Melt the 2 tablespoons of butter in a large frying pan, add the peeled and chopped onion, and fry on a low to medium heat until soft.
  2. Add the peeled and chopped garlic, and fry for a further 30 seconds.
  3. In go the sliced mushrooms, and cook until all the liquid released has been absorbed, and the mushrooms are golden brown - fresh mushrooms will cook quicker, whereas the frozen ones will take longer.
  4. Add the chopped parsley, and season well.
  5. Transfer everything to a blender, and add the soften butter too.
  6. Blitz to a smooth consistency.
  7. Divide the pate between 2 ramekins.
  8. Melt the remaining butter, and top the ramekins with it.
  9. Refrigerate for at least 1 hours until the butter at the top is set, and can act as a lid to preserve it for longer.

Notes

  • I stored my pate for 3 days in the fridge, purely because it got consumed, but the butter lid can preserve it for a lot longer. I probably wouldn't store it for longer than a week though, I believe in fresh food wherever possible.
  • You don't have to top with melted butter if you are planning to consume it straight away, but I do recommend chilling it in the fridge for at least an hour, it tastes a lot better cold.
