Duck Liver Pate
- 1 kg Duck Livers trimmed and roughly chopped
- 1/2 kg Unsalted Butter
- 2 Large onions chopped
- 6 Cloves garlic chopped
- Bouquet Garni or 1/2 Teaspoon mixed dried herbs
- 2 bay leaves
- 4 Tables spoon Brandy
- Salt and Pepper to taste
- Use 1/4 Butter and saute onions and garlic until transparent
- Add Bay leaves and Bouquet Garni or herbs
- Add roughly chopped liver and brandy and saute until livers cooked but still pink inside
- Melt and add remaining butter
- Allow to cool and season with salt and black pepper
- Remove the Bouquet Garni ,if used. I usually tear open the sachet and add 1/4 of the contents to the sauteed mix. Remove Bay Leaves
- Blend. Consistency up to you. I like it very smooth
- Pour into Ramekins or mould
- Cover with lid or cling wrap and chill in refrigerator
