Vegetarian / Vegan style Chopped Liver Pâté Recipe
This recipe is my absolute favorite thing to do with mushrooms. I always loved pâté, and when I was younger my Grandma would always bring a bowl of real chicken liver pate that I loved so much with some crackers.
This is a vegetarian version and also vegan if you ommit the egg. It tastes just amazing and really embodies many of the flavours that Grandma's real chopped liver used to have. Very simple to make and with just a few ingredients. Don't miss this one!
Ingredients
- Mushrooms
- Onion
- Walnuts / Mixed Nuts
- Ghee or Butter or Olive Oil
- Garlic
- 1 egg (optional)
- Gomazio (optional)
- Garnish
- Bread / Carrots / Celery / Crackers
How to make it
1. Heat a pan with a little oil
2. Cut onion into medium sized pieces and fry under medium high heat
3. Fry until golden brown with some darker spots. You are aiming to get some nice burned areas to bring the flavour out.
4. Add mushrooms roughly chopped and salt to taste and fry for around 10-12 minutes until dark and soft and caramalised.
5. Add 2-4 tablespoons of water and rub against the dark spots on the pan to dissolve them.
6. Set aside to cool
7. Using a blender grind the mix into a paste. You can see here I am using a masitcating grinder, or slow grinder.
8. Transfer the mix to a bowl and add the smushed boiled egg and mix well.
9. Add salt and pepper to taste
10. Plate it up with your favorite veggies or cracker and enjoy!
I like it a bit warm but you may prefer to keep it in the fridge and eat it cold.
As I always say...
IT'S TOO GOOD!
