But for the preparation of a delicious pâté, it is not at all necessary to use an expensive offal, chicken, pork, and delicious beef liver are also suitable. For a more detailed recipe for beef liver pate, see.
Ingredients:
1. Liver pate can be made from pork or beef liver, but chicken and turkey offal will have the most delicate taste. We buy chilled liver in a trusted store. Frozen by-products should not be chosen for making pâté. The liver should be fresh, uniform in color, without stains and unpleasant odors. We put the liver in a colander and rinse well under cool running water. We clean the offal from vessels, films and fatty tissues so that the pate is homogeneous and tender. Then we transfer the chicken liver into a deep bowl and fill it with cold water or milk. We leave it for at least an hour. This will help get rid of the bitterness and unpleasant liver odor.
2. We peel the large onion from the husk. Rinse well and dry with a napkin. Cut into thin half rings or arbitrary small pieces.
3. Peel and rinse the carrots. Cut into thin strips or grind on a large grater.
4.Place a part of the butter (about half) in a frying pan and heat well. Add the onion with chopped carrots. Fry for a couple of minutes over high heat. Then we reduce the heat and simmer for another 5-8 minutes under the lid. We periodically open the lid and stir the vegetables so as not to burn.
5. Once the onions and carrots are soft enough, it's time to add the chicken liver. We drain the liquid from it. Dry the pieces with a paper towel and cut into several pieces. Put in a frying pan with onions and carrots. Stirring, fry for 2-3 minutes over high heat. Then we reduce the heat, cover and simmer for 7-10 minutes until tender. To make the mass better stewed out and not burned, you can add another 0.5 cups of hot boiled water to the pan.
6. Transfer the prepared hot liver with soft vegetables and vegetables into a deep container. We leave the juice released by vegetables and liver in the pan - it will still be useful to us. Add the remaining butter, add salt and ground black pepper to taste. Stir to dissolve the oil.
7. Punch with an immersion blender until smooth without lumps. Stewed vegetables with liver can also be whipped in the bowl of a food processor or twisted through a meat grinder. Dilute a little with juice from a frying pan so that the mass is not very thick. Cool the liver pate well to room temperature.
8. Transfer to a clean jar, close the lid. We put it in the refrigerator, the pate is much tastier when chilled.
Delicious chicken liver pate with carrots is ready. We store no more than a day in the refrigerator. Bon Appetit!
1. You can also add mushrooms to the liver with vegetables, but boiled eggs will not give a paste of a delicate consistency, although with them the appetizer also turns out to be quite tasty.
2. Some cooks add whipped cream instead of butter. They are introduced gradually into a chilled and well-ground mass and mixed together with a blender.
3. An extravagant and very unusual taste is given to the pate by a baked apple, which must first be peeled from the skin and seeds.

Peel the onion and cut into half rings. Not necessarily "jewelry", since then the whole mixture will be ground into a single mass. Heat vegetable oil in a pan, fry the onion until light golden brown over medium heat, stirring occasionally (on average, fry for about 10 minutes).
Peel the carrots, cut into rings (or as you like, finely or grated) and add to the onion, stir and fry for a couple of minutes. After that, add the liver, bay leaf and a glass of water (enough water is needed so that it practically covers the liver with onions and carrots). Season with salt (half a teaspoon of salt), bring to a boil, reduce heat.
Then simmer covered over low heat for about 30 minutes until all ingredients are cooked. Open the lid, evaporate the excess liquid for 5-10 minutes (not completely, leave a little, it will go away during cooling, and the rest will make the chicken homemade pate more tender). During these 5-10 minutes of evaporation, the water should be first sprinkled with cinnamon (a pinch) and then nutmeg (slightly less than cinnamon) before turning off the heat. Turn off, hold for a few minutes under the lid, then open the lid and cool.
When the liver with onions and carrots have cooled, add a piece of butter (about 100 grams) and beat in a blender (the mass is soft enough, so choose the attachment according to the instructions of your blender). If the flask is small, then you can beat in two batches, then mix them thoroughly. Chicken pate is ready!
Chicken liver pate can be refrigerated for a short time before use. Serve with a sprig of herbs. Since the taste is very delicate, it is better to use bread with a neutral taste.

Delicate homemade chicken liver pate is ready! Bon Appetit!
I bring to your attention a recipe for chicken liver pate, which has many advantages - it is economical, tasty, satisfying and it is important to prepare such a pate quickly and easily. The butter should be at room temperature, in no case should it be heated, otherwise the ready-made pate will not look very attractive and this will also spoil the taste of the pate.
Rinse the chicken liver under running water, dry, cut off everything that is inedible, cut into 2-3 pieces.
Peel the onion, cut into half rings or a quarter of a ring. Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan, and fry the onions lightly. Salt and pepper the onion, so the onion becomes more aromatic and tasty.
Peel the carrots and cut into small cubes, add to the pan to the onion.
Cover the pan with a lid and simmer the carrots over low heat, for 5 minutes, do not forget to stir.
Then transfer the liver and fry the liver over high heat with constant stirring.
The liver should change color. When roasted quickly, the liver remains juicy and tender.
Pour 100-150 ml of hot water into a frying pan, add finely chopped hot peppers, bay leaves and simmer under a lid on the lowest heat for 20-25 minutes. Try the liver and carrots for readiness, they should be soft. And also adjust to your taste for salt and pungency. If the liver is already soft and there is still a lot of water in the pan, then remove the lid to allow the excess water to boil away.
Cool the mixture slightly, remove the bay leaf. Beat with a blender or in a food processor, in extreme cases, scroll 2 times through a meat grinder, use the smallest grate.
Add soft butter, beat again with a blender.
The pate is ready, transfer it to a container with a tight-fitting lid or a glass jar. Keep refrigerated.
Chicken liver pate, perfectly spread on toast.
I present to you the simplest chicken liver pate, but in the original version. More precisely, an unusual presentation. The recipe for this cold appetizer is quite simple, although there are some nuances, as well as subtleties in the preparation of liver pate. As a result, you will get not only a tasty and satisfying, but also a presentable dish that will decorate even a festive table.
First of all, you need to process the chicken liver. To do this, rinse it under cold running water, then dry it with a paper towel or napkins. Cut the liver into 2-3 pieces and cut off the white veins. You need to fry the liver in a deep wide frying pan in hot oil. 800 grams of liver is quite a lot, so I fried in 2 doses. Do not put a lot of pieces at once, since then it will not be fried, but stewed. Fry the chicken liver on both sides until golden brown. This will take no more than 5 minutes. As soon as the red juice no longer oozes from the middle when pierced, the liver is ready. Do not dry it out.
Then pour cognac and light it. It was difficult for me to capture the flambing process as it only lasts a few seconds. Our goal is to evaporate alcohol so that only the aroma of cognac remains. Remove the finished liver from the pan and transfer it to another dish to cool.
In the same oil where we fried the liver, put onions peeled and cut into medium pieces. We fry it over a low-medium heat.
Then put the carrots chopped on a coarse grater. You can just chop it finely enough with a knife - we still need to puree it later.
Cook covered until vegetables are tender. At the end, add a pinch of ground nutmeg - with it, the finished chicken liver pate will acquire very pleasant aromatic notes. Remove the pan from the heat and let the onions and carrots cool.
When all the ingredients have cooled, they will need to be turned into pate. You can use a hand blender, but I like it better in a food processor (attachment - Metal knife). In addition, you can even scroll through a meat grinder twice. First, we break through the chicken liver, as it takes up quite a lot of space.
Then add the fried vegetables. The vegetable oil that remains after cooking can be poured or added to the pate - as you like. Grind everything again, while adding salt and ground black pepper to taste.
And finally, put in soft butter (100 grams), which you need to get out of the refrigerator in advance. Leave the remaining 20 grams for decorating the pate.
Once again, we will punch everything so that the mass becomes smooth and homogeneous - this is a paste, after all. In fact, everything is ready, but I want to show you how you can beautifully serve chicken pate in the shape of a tree (or rather hemp). Since at this stage it still does not hold its shape well, the pate must be prepared, that is, it must be thoroughly cooled.
To do this, we transfer most of the pate to a piece of cling film and roll it up, giving it the shape of a cylinder. This will be the trunk of a felled tree. We send the pate in the freezer for 15 minutes.
Now let's make a stump. To do this, we select a suitable flat dish (so that the barrel will also fit later) and with the help of a forming ring we make just such a blank. If you have such a ring (I just got it myself), use a 1.5 liter plastic bottle cut on both sides. Such a thing has served me for many years.
Let's add a couple of knots to it too. Then, with a fork, make irregularities like the bark of a tree. It is very easy.
And finally, the rings of the tree, for which we left those 20 grams of soft butter. Just use a knife to apply it to the improvised cuts of a tree, and then draw a spiral with a toothpick or wooden skewer. And a little highlight is the ax, with which, in fact, we cut down our pate tree. It is cut from raw carrots. Just cut the carrots lengthwise to get an even plate - about 3-5 millimeters thick. And there with a knife, cut out a hatchet, as fantasy allows.
Let's liven up our picture a little with fresh herbs - sprigs of parsley will be very useful.
And now it's time to surprise your family or guests at the table with our unusual and effective-looking, at the same time very easy-to-prepare chicken liver pate. Try it too, everything will work out!

You can store pâté with chicken liver for about a week in the refrigerator, covering it with a lid or parchment paper from airing.
Melt half the butter in a large skillet. Wash the liver, cut into large pieces, dry a little so that the oil does not splash, and put in the pan.
Fry the liver until crispy on one side and then turn over. Fry until crusty on the other side. The liver inside should turn pink, and the blood should stop coming out.
Remove the cooked liver from the pan. Peel the garlic, cut in half and core. Put the garlic in the liver oil, reduce the heat slightly, and fry the garlic until soft. While frying the garlic, turn it over so it does not burn, and press it a little with a spatula, then you will feel when it becomes soft.
Fold the fried chicken liver and garlic into a blender, pour in the oil in which everything was fried, salt (about half a teaspoon without a slide). Grind everything until smooth.
Transfer the chicken liver pâté to a tin or jar, tamp well and smooth the surface.
Melt the remaining butter over low heat.
