This tasty vegan pâté is really delicious on bread or crackers. Serve it with cornichons, gherkins and / or pickled onions.
I have never been a fan of meat pâtés as I find them too greasy. This low fat alternative is made from lentils and mushrooms. I added liquid smoke (which you can find in supermarkets) to add some extra flavour and umami depth.
This vegan pâté is a versatile recipe which you can make whether you are planning for a picnic or simply want to increase your repertoire of meat free sandwich filling. It is also ideal for buffets and entertaining.
Last but not least, it is also kids' friendly (you can skip the marsala wine if you like, I don't) and both my children have approved it and ask for it over and over again.
