A tasty vegetarian pâté that’s bursting with flavour. Serve with a red onion chutney and crusty bread.
Ingredients:
225g mushrooms

5 tbsp. crème fraiche
15g butter
1 tsp. English mustard
Pinch of grated nutmeg

Directions:
Roughly chop the mushrooms and leek.
Melt the butter in a large saucepan and add the mushrooms and leeks. Cook on a low heat for around 5 minutes or until the vegetables have softened.
Add the crème fraiche, mustard, nutmeg and a pinch of black pepper and cook for a further five minutes or until most of the liquid has evaporated.
