Anchovy Pâté image

Greek chef and restaurateur Theodore Kyriakou (widely considered to be the finest Greek chef in Britain) says of this recipe: "This dish is best made with the strongly flavoured salted anchovy fillets (be sure to rinse them well), but the anchovies from tins or jars will do as well. You can either use a food processor or pound everything with a pestle and mortar. This paste will keep for several weeks in the fridge and is served on biscuits or bread." This recipe is from his book 'real greek food', which he co-authored with food writer Charles Campion. It's obviously a recipe for those who love anchovies! I'm posting it here for the 2005 Zaar World Tour.

The anchovy dish was a bit too fishy for my taste. I think next time I'll try a different anchovy recipe.

Not a fan of this anchovy dish. The anchovies were too salty and the sauce was too tangy. I think I'll stick to my usual fish recipes.

The anchovy dish was a bit too salty for my taste. I think next time I'll use half the amount of anchovies called for in the recipe.

This anchovy dish was a delightful culinary journey! The combination of flavors and textures was simply divine. The anchovies were perfectly balanced with the tangy lemon and the salty capers. The crispy breadcrumb topping added a delightful crunch t
