  Absolutely delicious! Pushing the mixture through a sieve really gave it a very smooth taste. Could maybe do with a pinch of salt, but otherwise delicious!

  I made this yesterday for a starter at a dinner party and it was amazing! I did add an extra garlic clove though and used Lemon Thyme.

  Yes homemade pate can be frozen. One of my neighbours makes pate for us and we freeze it. Tastes just as good after it's been frozen!

  This recipe is really good - it was my first time making Parfait and it worked out really well. I ended up with a lovely smooth, rich parfait which all my friends loved. Plus, I made it the night before a dinner party so it was a very stress-free course. I agree with Miss Vandicamp - it was totally gross to make! Worth it though.

  Is it absolutely necessary to sieve if you don't mind your pate not being smooth?

  Really good recipe the more you blend the easier it is to pass through the sieve. Also added some red chilli, brandy and more shallots than specified to spice it up a little. It can handle quite a bit of seasoning but such an easy recipe.

  Had this last night and it was delicious, i ate the left overs today for lunch and think it may have even benefited from being in the fridge over night!
