Preparation

Step 1

Melt 125g/4oz of butter, add the onion and cook until softened but not coloured.

Step 2

Add the chicken livers and garlic and cook over a medium heat until the livers are cooked through. This won't take very long and be careful not to overcook the livers.

Step 3

Stir in the brandy and mustard powder and cook for further minute.

Step 4

Place 65g/2oz butter and the liver mixture in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth.

Step 5

Spoon the mixture into serving ramekins making the surface as flat as possible.

Step 6

Melt the remaining butter in a sauce pan and skim off the froth.

Step 7

Place the bay leaves into the ramekins and pour over the melted butter to seal the pâté.

Step 8

Place the ramekins in the fridge.

Step 9

Serve up with toasted whole grain bread, some simple mixed leaves and a little sweet chutney or pickle.

​

The longer you blend the livers together the smoother the pâté will be.
