Easy and simple pate. You can serve the pate in small ramekins or in one large dish. I line a dish (approx 2 cup capacity) with cling film and then turn the pate out, garnish with the capers and cayenne and lemon wedges. Serve with thin toasted bread.

  • 4. You can either serve this in a bowl with crudities or on top of https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/snack/snack-crackers/crostini-2.html?p=19 decorated with some fresh dill.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest smoked mackerel you can find. Look for fillets that are firm and have a bright, silvery skin.
  • Remove the skin and bones from the smoked mackerel before using it. This will make the pâté smoother and easier to spread.
  • Use a food processor to make the pâté. This will help to create a smooth and creamy texture.
  • Add other ingredients to the pâté to taste. Some popular options include herbs, spices, cream cheese, and lemon juice.
  • Chill the pâté for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will help the flavors to meld together.
  • Serve the pâté with crackers, bread, or vegetables. It can also be used as a sandwich spread.
