This smoked mackerel paté is perfect for Christmas and New Year’s Eve celebrations
but is also delicious any time of the year!
And it only takes minutes to make!
Ingredients (for 2 small bowls similar to the one depicted above):
- 200g smoked mackerel
- 3tbsp full-fat cream cheese
- 2tbsp lemon juice
- a generous pinch of flat-leaf parsley leaves
- 1tsp dijon mustard (use less if you prefer not to have a strong mustard taste)
- a generous sprinkling of freshly-ground black pepper
Method:
Remove the skin and any visible bones from the mackerel (don’t worry about tiny bones as they’ll get ‘blitzed’ in a blender anyway), then tear into chunks and place in a blender
Add all remaining ingredients and ‘blitz’ until smooth
Refrigerate until ready to serve, then serve with your choice of crackers, toast or as a dip with crisps.
Enjoy!
