Instructions

Step 1

Heat butter and oil in a large heavy-based frying pan over medium heat. Add onion and cook, stirring, for 3 minutes or until onion softens. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute or until fragrant.

Step 2

Increase heat to high. Add mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, for 4 minutes or until tender. Add the sherry and thyme and cook for 1-2 minutes or until the liquid evaporates. Remove from heat and set aside for 10 minutes to cool.

Step 3

Transfer mixture to the bowl of a food processor. Add cream cheese and parsley and process until smooth. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a serving bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and place in fridge for 1-2 hours to set.

Step 4

Meanwhile, preheat oven to 180°C. Brush bread slices with a little of the olive oil and place on a baking tray. Cook in oven for 8-10 minutes or until golden. Serve pate with toasted baguette.
