Vegan Pâté

One thing I've always looked forward too at Christmas is all the different types of pâté you can buy. Well this being our first Vegan Christmas, I thought I would have a go at making some! 

Ingredients:

Half a cup of cashews

1 tablespoon of peanuts

2 cups of mushrooms

2 tablespoons of coconut oil

1 onion

1 apple

Blend up the peanuts and cashews. 

Till about this consistency ^

Then pop them in the oven till brown.

Chop up the apple and onion, about 1-2cm in size.

Add the coconut oil to the onion and apple and heat till the coconut oil has gone translucent. 

Blend up and then reuse the same pan to cook up the mushrooms.

Add the chopped up mushrooms, cook till really squeaky and starting to brown.

Add the mushrooms and now browned nuts, blend. Don't forget your seasoning, I added a little Rosemary and about a tablespoon of parsley. 

Pop it in a tight closing topped jar and once cooled pop it in the fridge. 

Yummy, my testers (aka family) said when cooking off the mushrooms try some red wine so will try that next time!
