How do I make pate?

Easy Pate

1 pound chicken livers
1/3 cup butter
1 onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 green apple, peeled and chopped
1/2 tsp dried marjoram
1/2 tsp dried thyme
1/3 cup dry sherry
2 eggs, hardboiled and chopped
salt and fresh ground pepper to taste

Remove connective tissues from livers and rinse well. Simmer chicken livers in about 1-1/4 cup of water for 4 minutes. Remove the livers from the liquid and reserve about 3/4 cup of the liquid. Melt butter in pan and cook the livers until browned. Add the
onion, garlic, apple, marjoram, thyme, sherry and reserved liquid from simmering the livers and mix well. Simmer for 20 minutes stirring often.

Place mixture into a blender and add the hardboiled eggs. Blend until mixture is pureed, adding salt and pepper to taste. Place mixture into a serving bowl, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least two hours before serving. Serve with crackers or cocktail bread.
