Homemade pork liver pâté is a tasty alternative to store‑bought spreads and takes just a few basic ingredients. Pork liver, onions, cream and butter come together into a smooth, flavorful spread that feels comforting and nostalgic. You can keep it in the fridge for several days and enjoy it on toast, sandwiches or as part of a simple appetizer board.
Ingredients
- 1.1 lb pork liver
- 1 pc onion
- 7 tbsp butter
- 1/3 cup sour cream
- salt and spices to taste
- sunflower oil
Instructions
- Peel the onion and slice it into thin half‑rings.
- Rinse the liver under running water and cut it into small pieces.
- Pour a little sunflower oil into a skillet and sauté the onion until golden.
- Add the chopped liver to the onions, stir and cook over low heat for about 20 minutes.
- Season the liver with salt, add your spices, pour in the cream and simmer for another 5 minutes.
- Let the liver mixture cool down. Then transfer it to a blender, add a small piece of butter and blend until completely smooth.
- Spoon the pâté into a dish or container. Melt the remaining butter.
- Carefully pour the melted butter over the top of the pâté. This butter cap will help it keep longer in the fridge, as it will set and seal the surface.
- You can garnish the pâté with whole peppercorns, such as pink and white pepper.
