Refreshing Salmon Pâté with Crudities
"Three fish pâté is high on our list dishes, snacks dips and spreads, especially for summer period but not only. It has been really hot lately and cooking isn’t really something that I fancy doing much when hot weather is around. Well of course I still do but I do prepare a lot of dishes like this. Not only that we still stay healthy but diminishes significantly the actual cooking making it ideal really for summer time."
NotesYou can make this pate lumpier a lot more smoother and like I was saying earlier, it can be made a dip, a spread or it really depends on how you want and like its texture to be. The more you whizz it the smoother it will become.
I sometimes do like it lumpier, just for some extra texture so I’d just give it a few whizzes.
I do make it very smooth when I don’t have the time to pick the fish bones in the mackerel and then leave it longer in the food processor to become a nice n’ smooth and quite fluffy and velvety paste.
You decide on the texture and juggle with the yoghurt so, add more of this if you want it more like a dip than a thick pâté.
Serve it with crudities or with a nice homemade flat bread., it is simply magnificent.
Enjoy!!
