INSTRUCTIONS
1 Wash and trim the chicken livers. Fry the onion gently in the oil
for 5
minutes until soft but not coloured. Add the livers and one sprig of
rosemary and cook gently, stirring from time to time, for
approximately 8 mins until the livers are cooked through.
2 Add the wine and allow the alcohol to evaporate for 2-3 minutes.
Discard the sprig of rosemary and coarsely process in a food
processor. Be careful, this will only take seconds!
3 Return the puree to the pan. Add the anchovy fillets, capers and
chicken stock and cook gently for 2-3 minutes. Check the seasoning,
adding lots of black pepper but probably only a little salt, if any,
due to the saltiness of the anchovies and capers.
4 Finally, stir in the butter. Keep the pate warm while you toast the
slices of bread - if it splits or you like a smoother pate, simply
blend again briefly in the food processor.
5 Spread the toasted bread with pate, arrange on a plate and garnish
with the remaining sprig of rosemary.
