Famhouse Pate

Recipe from: Jana Steinhagen
Servings: 8

A rustic easy to make Pâté that will impress.

500 g pigs liver, chopped
200 g bacon, diced
1 onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
200 g pancetta, thinly sliced
1 lemon, zest of
1 tablespoon fruit jelly (mine is Guava)
1 tablespoon parsley, chopped
80 ml rose wine
12 peppercorns, crushed
6 juniper berries, crushed
1 bay leaf

Line a square tin ith the pancetta, reserving a couple of slices for the top. Mix all the Pâté ingredients together, season lightly and spoon into the tin. Fold over the sides and arrange the remaining Pancetta on top. Tuck in the Bayleaf and cover tightly with tin foil. Put this into a Bain Marie and then into the oven at 180°C (350°F) for 1½ to 2 hours. I removed the foil towards the end to give the top time to brown a little.

Once it comes out press the Pâté with some weights (i.e. tinned beans) until cool, then refrigerate and it will be ready the next day. :-).
