Mushroom pate (veggie)

[aquilegia]

1lb mushrooms (any you like)
4-6oz soft cheese
1 onion
3-4 cloves garlic
1/2tbsp red wine or balsamic vinegar
1/2tbsp soy sauce
chopped parsley
1/4-1/2tsp paprika

finely chop the onion and gently fry until softened.
Add the crushed garlic and finally chopped mushrooms. Cook for 15-20 mins until all the liquid has evaporated.
Remove from heat. If any liquid left, drain.
Then add the vinegar, soy, parsley and paprika. Mix well. Leave to cool.
Add the cheese.
You can either leave chunky or purree half or all for a smoother pate.
Put in fridge for 1-2 hours.

Really yummy. I like it on lightly toasted bread or (as I'm eaten a rather late lunch right now) in a salad sandwich.

I am seriously tempted too, there are lots of mushrooms popping up on our allotments ... yes they are safe, I have already tried them!
