Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 Whole garlic bulb
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 200 grams Brie cheese
- 150 grams Pitted black olives
- 1 teaspoon Fresh lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (finely chopped)
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 batch Crostini or crackers (for serving)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
Slice the top off the whole garlic bulb to expose the cloves. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the exposed garlic, wrap the bulb in aluminum foil, and roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cloves are soft and golden brown.
While the garlic is roasting, remove the rind from the Brie cheese and cut the cheese into small chunks. Set aside to soften.
Once the garlic is roasted and cool enough to handle, squeeze the cloves out of their skins into a food processor.
Add the Brie cheese, pitted black olives, fresh lemon juice, remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil, fresh parsley, salt, and pepper to the food processor.
Blend all the ingredients until smooth and creamy. Taste the pâté and adjust seasoning if needed.
Transfer the pâté to a serving bowl. Allow it to chill in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes to let the flavors meld together.
Serve chilled or at room temperature with crostini or crackers. Garnish with additional parsley or a drizzle of olive oil, if desired.
