[T]here is nothing in us or done by us at any stage of our earthly development because of which we are acceptable to God. We must always be accepted for Christ’s sake or we cannot ever be accepted at all. This is not true of us only “when we believe,” it is just as true after we have believed. It will continue to be true as long as we live… It is always, on His “blood and righteousness” alone that we can rest. There is never anything that we are or have or do that can take His place or that take a place along with Him. We are always unworthy, and all that we have or do of good is always of pure grace.

INGREDIENTS

4	oz	Open Mushrooms, trimmed
2	tb	Olive Oil
2		Cloves Garlic, Peeled and chopped
1/2	ts	Powdered Bay Leaf
1/2	ts	Paprika
1/2	ts	Salt
2	oz	Butter
1		Egg

INSTRUCTIONS

Wash the mushrooms in a colander of 30 seconds to a minute, using very hot
water, but don't peel them. Cut into half-inch pieces.
Heat the olive oil in a frying pan, add the mushrooms and garlic and fry
over a medium heat until the mushrooms give off liquid. Turn up the heat to
maximum and boil away the liquid until the mushrooms are almost dry.
Put them into a food processor or liquidiser if you have one, with the
powdered bay leaf, paprika and salt. If you don't have a processor, put the
mushrooms through a mincer.
Add the butter to the frying pan and scramble the egg in it to take up all
the remaining liquid and bits of mushroom. When the egg has set, put it
into the food processor with the mushrooms and herbs and puree until the
mixture is fine-grained.
If you have minced the mushrooms, put them into a bowl and beat the
scrambled eggs into them very well - you may find a fork best for this -
until the mushrooms and egg are well blended together.
Pack the mixture into individual ramekins or a single souffle dish if you
prefer, and chill for at least five hours before using. Serve with warm
crusty french bread - what else!!
If you wan't to keep the pate for a few days, seal the top with a thin
layer of melted butter and keep in the fridge covered with foil or cling
film for up to three days.
