Carrot Pate
1 tbls. olive oil
1 small onion finely chopped
3 medium sized carrots sliced (1/2 lb)
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup orange juice
1 tbls. grated orange rind
1/2 tsp.black pepper
1/8 tsp salt
1/8 tsp. curry powder
2 tbls. mayo
1 tsp. coarse grained prepared mustard
In skillet, heat oil, add onion til tender, add carrots, water, oj, rind, pepper, salt, and curry powder. Cover for 6 - 8 minutes. Uncover, cook on higher heat until liquid has evaporated. Turn off heat. Let cool. Put in food processor until smooth. Add mayo and mustard and process some more. Put in small bowl and refrigerate.
Now for my own touch. I loved the flavor but didn't care for it with crackers so I came up with the idea of serving it with snow pea pods. I would turn the bowl over in the center of a large plate and put the pea pods around it like petals on a flower. Looks gorgeous for a party and tastes unbelievable. Enjoy!
That’s interesting!
