Ingredients

1 pound venison trimmed weight
1/2 pound belly of pork trimmed weight
1/2 pound chicken livers
1 small orange
1 each lemon
2 each garlic cloves
1 1/2 teaspoons thyme fresh, more to taste
1 x bay leaves whole and ground
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 pint red wine
1 teaspoon gelatin powder
1 x kumquat to decorate

Directions

Mince all three meats fairly finely and put them into a bowl.

Add the zest of the orange and lemon, the crushed garlic, the thyme, olive oil, vinegar, a generous pinch of powdered bay and plenty of black pepper.

Mix thoroughly and stir in the wine.

Cover and leave to marinate overnight.

Season with salt - I find 1 teaspoon about right but fry a small nugget of the mixture to check.

Turn the pate into a terrine of about 2 1/4 pint capacity.

Pack the mixture well down into the corners of the dish and use a spoon to hollow out slightly the centre top.

Cover with greaseproof paper and foil, stand the dish in a roasting pan containing enough hot water to come halfway up the sides of the dish.

Bake at 325 F (160 C) gas mark 3 for 2-1/4 to 2-1/2 hours.

Using a bulb baster, remove and reserve most of the juices that surround the pate.

Replace the greaseproof paper and foil, press the pate lightly with 1-1/2 to 2 lb weights and cool for 1-1/2 hours.

Then drain off any remaining juices that have not been re-

absorbed by the pate.

Mix all the venison juices that you have collected with the juice of the orange and measure.

Add a splash of water if necessary to make 1/2 pint in total.

Dissolve the gelatine powder in the mixture and use it to glaze the pate, adding a few bay leaves and kumquats to decorate if liked.
