How to make pate-stuffed mushrooms

Pate-stuffed mushrooms are really easy to make. They do look as if you have made some effort, so are an ideal starter for a dinner party. First, preheat your oven to 200C.  Get your mushrooms and remove the stalks. Chop the stalks into small pieces with some sage, parsley and oregano. You can use whichever fresh herbs you fancy to change the flavour. A little seasoning with salt and pepper will help bring out the flavour. Mix the stalk mixture with the pate.

Next, melt some butter and use a pastry brush to brush this on the mushrooms. Stuff the mushrooms with the pate and bake in the oven for 20 – 30 minutes. If you want to be a little more fancy you could add some breadcrumbs to the top of the pate before baking. Put on a plate to serve.

Small mushrooms are ideal for a bite-sized snack. You could also use large portabello mushrooms for a more impressive starter. The flavour of the mushrooms will vary depending on the type of pate you choose.

What can you serve with pate?

Pate is a versatile ingredient which you can use in a lot of different ways. One of my favourites is to spread it on French bread. The soft pate works well with the crusty bread to make a lunchtime treat.

You can also use it as a dip with carrots, celery sticks or tortilla chips. Pate also makes a lovely addition to a cheese board with grapes, cheese and crackers. What is your favourite way to serve pate? Let me know below.
