Smoked Tofu, Walnut and Mushroom Patê

Ingredients 

• 1 Onion

• 300g Walnuts

• 300g Mushrooms

• 1 Block Yipin Smoked Tofu 

• 1 Beet (peeled and boiled)

• 1tsp Dried Thyme

• 1 tbsp White Vinegar/Apple Cider Vinegar 

• 3 tbsp Olive Oil

• Salt and Pepper

Method 

• Start by chopping your onion, mushrooms, beet and tofu into cubes. 

• Fry the onion in olive oil in a large frying pan on medium heat. Once the onion starts to become translucent, add the mushrooms. 

• Allow the mushrooms to release their water and start to crisp, before adding the smoked tofu, beet and walnuts. 

• Turn the heat to low and season this mix with dried thyme, salt and pepper. Allow the flavours to come together with the heat and for everything to brown a little. 

• Finally add the vinegar to deglaze the pan and remove from the heat. 

• Next blend everything together in a food processor or using a hand blender. It is best to allow the mix to cool before blending, most blenders will become overheated with hot ingredients.
