2. STEP 2

   

   Take the chicken liver, rinse it well under the tap, and let the water drain. You can prepare a pate from boiled liver or from fried one, the first version of the pate turns out to be more tender and healthy, the second version will appeal to lovers of fried things, you don’t have to fry the liver and vegetables, but simply lightly fry them and simmer until done. This is the option I offer you today.

3. STEP 3

   

   Prepare the liver for frying. To do this, cut it in half or even smaller, cutting off any bile ducts, if any.

8. STEP 8

   

   Puree the cooled ingredients in a food processor or blender. Add a few pieces of butter and beat everything together again. The amount of oil can be adjusted based on your preferences: if you don’t like it too fatty, put a little less; if you like the creamy taste in pates, increase the amount of oil. You can add oil in small portions.

An excellent, basic recipe for pate was offered to us by naniki. This recipe is prepared very quickly using available ingredients. The pate turns out very tender. I didn’t fill it with butter, I only had 350 grams of liver, it turned out to be quite a bit, enough for a couple of breakfasts or snacks. I added a little dry thyme and paprika as spices. I had some cream cheese left in a tub in the refrigerator, so I added it to the pâté and it tasted amazing. In general, the good thing about the recipe is that, having prepared the base according to it, you can use your imagination and add whatever your heart desires. Have fun cooking and don’t be afraid to get creative!

It just so happens that my family doesn’t really like liver, but they really like liver pate. Since store-bought pate is not entirely healthy, and I want to feed my family only the most delicious and healthy food, I decided that I would make homemade chicken liver pate myself. And the recipe is on the website. This recipe produces an incredibly tasty, soft and tender pate. It is prepared quite simply and quickly, perfect for a snack or a hearty breakfast. From a minimal amount of ingredients you get a wonderful, healthy pate for the whole family, which is much better than store-bought. The only thing I would like to draw the attention of newcomers to the kitchen is that bile can sometimes get caught in the liver; it must be removed, otherwise the pate will taste bitter. And the pate may not be too thick immediately after cooking, but after refrigeration, as it cools, it hardens well. I recommend everyone to try this pate. Thank you very much to the author for the recipe!

Liver is a useful product, but not for everybody! From time to time I cook liver for the whole family and every time I try to cook it in such a way as to make every family member fall in love with it. Chicken liver pate with carrots and onions has become an unusual option for cooking liver. The pate has a delicate creamy taste with the aroma of fried onions. Carrots add extra piquancy. Thanks to the author for the recipe!
