This is the best version of mock chopped liver I've ever tasted (Thanks Sid). Makes a great vegetarian deli-style sandwich on some good pumpernickel, with some lettuce, tomato, and sliced raw onion. Ingredients:
1 cup walnut pieces |
1 -2 tablespoon vegetable oil |
2 -3 cups onions, thin sliced or chopped |
1 1/2 cups well cooked green beans, chopped (even canned works in this) |
3 hard-boiled eggs, coarse chopped |
3/4 cup cooked brown lentils |
1 tablespoon tomato paste |
2 -3 tablespoons mayonnaise |
1/2 teaspoon salt, to taste |
black pepper, to taste |
Directions:
1. Lightly toast the walnuts in a heavy based pan. 2. Set aside. 3. Saute onions in the oil, cooking until golden (but NOT burned). 4. Add tomato paste to this and cook 1 more minute. 5. Remove from heat and cool slightly. 6. Add onion mix, toasted walnuts, and remaining ingredients to blender or food processor and grind together well (add a few spoons of water or vegetable broth, if necessary). 7. Taste for additional salt and pepper. 8. Chill for 4 hours (this also allows the flavour to develop). 9. Bring to room temperature for serving. |
