"This is from Australian Woman's Weekly Dinner Party Cookbook. I usually use low fat mayo and cream."

 

• Ready In: 15mins
• Ingredients: 9
• Serves: 10-12

ingredients

• 1⁄2 cup hot water
• 1 tablespoon gelatin
• 1 chicken stock cube
• 220 g red salmon, undrained (8oz)
• 4 shallots, roughly chopped (green onions)
• 1⁄4 cup mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• salt & pepper
• 1⁄2 cup cream

directions

1. Put gelatine, stock cube and water in food processor and blend for 1 minute.
2. Add salmon, shallots, mayonnaise, lemon juice, salt & pepper, blend for 1 minute.
3. Add cream, blend 30 seconds only.
4. Pour into lightly oiled mould - I often use a round margarine container if I intend to un-mould pate, it is a good size and it looks nice with a slice of lemon in the centre to serve.
5. Set in fridge for a couple of hours.
6. Un-mould and serve surrounded by melba toast or toast triangles and don't forget the pate knife.
