How to Make Lamb Liver Pate With Garlic Glaze
- For the lamb-veggie puree:Start melting 1 ounce of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the bacon, onion, and garlic. Cook and stir until onion is tender and the bacon starts changing color.
- Add the lamb liver. Cook and stir for 4-5 minutes.
- Keep adding the tomato sauce, brandy, and bay leaf. Cook and stir for 2-3 minutes more.
- Pick the cooked lamb pieces and add them to a bowl. Set them aside. Also, pick and discard the bay leaf.
- Add the creme fraiche to the skillet and stir a little. Transfer it to the blender. Add the cooked liver and puree them. Add the other ounce of butter, season with salt and pepper, and pulse again. Set aside.
- For the almond flakes:Add the almond flakes to a saucepan or skillet and season them with salt. Stir-fry them until golden brown. Set aside.
- For the garlic glaze:Start melting the butter in a skillet over low heat. Add the thyme, peppercorns, and garlic. Cook and stir for 1-2 minutes.
- Coat two ramekins with some of this, then transfer the blended mixture into a piping bag.
- Fill the ramekins with it, then top with the garlic glaze. Refrigerate overnight.
- Spread on slices of bread or toast and top with fried salted almond flakes.
I am Australian, “tomato sauce ” for us is what you call Ketchup. Do you mean tomato paste or a more liquid tomato puree, like a passata?
You’re right, Shelley. Go with Passata and you’ll be ok. ✌
How long will this last in the fridge and can you freeze it?
Unfortunately, not very long, Hilary. Say, 2-3 days. Better eat it fresh, as we did! 🙂
I have a lot of liver. Have you ever doubled this recipe and put half in the freezer?
Hi, Erica! Nope, we didn’t double the quantities for this one. Actually, when it comes to liver, we prefer smaller quantities and we never keep this type of spread in the fridge for more than a day or two, three maximum. We could freeze it also, but we didn’t. Fresh is better! 🎈
Made this today and was surprised how light it was – milder than chicken liver pate. The end result was delectable and delicious with the toasted almond flakes on top. I did not have fresh thyme available, so I used freshly chopped oregano and rosemary. This is a winner as I love both lamb’s liver (and kidneys). Thank you!
That’s just super, Jonathan! 😀 And using oregano with rosemary instead of thyme was a slick choice, indeed. We thank you and keep up the good cooking! 🖐🎈
