Pork pate
Introduction
This pate takes little time to prepare, but delicious to eat. Keeps well in a fridge for several days.

- 700 g boneless pork meat (shoulder, belly)
- 200 g fresh bacon
- 3 shallots
- 250 g pork liver
- 3 medium-sized eggs
- 2 tbsp pickled green peppercorns
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 2 sprigs (2inch each) rosemary
- 1/2 tsp fresh thyme
- 1 bay leaf
- 2 tbsp brandy
- salt
- mince together the pork meat, liver and 50 g bacon
- stir in the finely chopped onions, thyme, black and green peppercorns, eggs, salt and brandy
- cut 150 g bacon into the thin strips and line the bottom and the sides of a terrine dish
- turn the pork mixture into the dish, smooth the top, arrange the rosemary and bay leaf over and cover with the bacon strips
- bake in a water bath for 1hour15 min at 165C
Thoughts and Ideas
If the meat is very lean, take more bacon or add 100 g cream. The cooking time depends on the size of the dish, test with a skewer, if the juice comes out clean the pate is ready.
