Ingredients
Pork liver | 1 kg | |
Carrot | 300 g | |
Bow | 2 pcs. | |
Fresh lard (not salty) | 300 g | |
Butter | 200 g | |
Salt | Pepper | taste |
Step cooking
- First, prepare the necessary ingredients. Soak pork liver, peel carrots and onions. Cut fat into large pieces.
- Turn on the pan and unload the lard there. Leave it to fry over high heat for the first 3 minutes.
- While the lard is fried, cut the carrots into strips and add it to the lard. Reduce the heat to medium and cover the pan.
- Cut the onion into half rings or large cubes.
- Send the onions to the pan to the rest of the ingredients and mix everything together. Cover and leave to simmer.
- We cut the liver into pieces and send it to the onion, lard and carrots.
- We cover the pan with a lid, simmer all the ingredients for 5-10 minutes, then mix. Stew until the liver is ready, about 30 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat. We shift the ingredients into a plate and begin to pass everything through the meat grinder twice, so that the mass turns out to be more uniform.
- Salt, pepper and add the butter to the paste.
- Mix the paste with the butter, put it in the refrigerator and leave to cool and cool. Done! Enjoy your meal!
Variations of serving and decorating dishes
Pate can be found on any festive table - for many it is an integral part of the event. However, serving the pate to the table is quite difficult, since the dish itself does not look very attractive. To correct the situation and make the paste the main dish on the table or at least attract the attention of guests to it, try decorating the paste as follows or serving it effectively:
- Serve the paste in small transparent bowls. Let them be few - the paste in a large bowl does not look very presentable.
- Serve the paste with a sprig of parsley or dill on top. You can also add chopped greens, if you wish.
- Place the pate on the table for less “bright” dishes, such as pickles. If you place it next to some baked chicken, vegetable salad or mashed potatoes, guests are unlikely to notice it.
