PREPARATION

Preparation time: 10min

Cooking time: 10min

Total: 20min

Cut the onion in brunoise (squares) and fry it. When it is golden brown, add the mushrooms and let it cook over medium-high heat to prevent the ingredients from boiling with the water from the mushrooms.

When the water released by the mushrooms has evaporated, lower the heat and let everything simmer. When the onion and mushrooms are well done and browned, add the rice vinegar and continue cooking over a low heat for another 10 minutes. At the end of cooking, add salt and a little pepper.

Grind the mushrooms and the onion. When the pâté is cold, add the chopped fresh cilantro, the lime juice and a little bit of lime zest if you want a more intense flavor.
