Added a teaspoon of sugar because my Marsala wasn’t sweet enough.

Absolutely delicious. Served with an apple and pear chutney. The sweetness cuts through the rich pate.

question

Hi, I am going to make this a week before Christmas, will it be fine in the fridge or will I need to freeze it? Thanks!

rachwarring

I have frozen it and it comes out fine

Really simple recipe with a fabulous outcome. I made too much and froze 2 x batches. They were also delicious when thawed through. Better than any pate I have bought before :-)

I’m not entirely clear about whether it’s just the orange zest or the orange fruit that is added?

I was in the same quandary: in the end I used just the zest, and it was fine. A great, simple but delicious recipe.
