Melt about half the quantity of butter, whizz with the liver, some crushed garlic and fresh herbs in a food processor. Season to taste and chill until set - liver pate :j I freeze it in small batches and it defrosts beautifully.

Another vote for liver pate. Here's my recipe - to all intents and purposes, like PP's.
LIVER PATÉ
Serves 2
INGREDIENTS
250g of liver
2 onions
2 cloves of garlic
1 tablespoon of butter
½ a teaspoon of mixed herbs
Ground pepper to taste
DEFROSTING
If you are using frozen liver, make sure that it is completely defrosted before use. Leave it in the fridge overnight, or out of the fridge and covered for 4 hours.
METHOD
Peel the onions and chop them into tiny pieces. Peel the garlic and chop it into tiny pieces.
Put the butter into a saucepan on a low heat. Add the onions and garlic. Cook until they are soft. Add the liver and herbs. Cook gently for 10 minutes, mashing it together with a wooden spoon to check that it is cooked through.
Put everything into a bowl and mash it together until it is spreadable and to your taste. Season with the pepper.
Serve cold on hot buttered toast.
ADDITIONS & ALTERNATIVES
Use chicken, lamb or pigs liver.
Add 1 tablespoon of sherry when the liver is nearly cooked through.
TIPS
If you cook liver on too high a heat, it will turn out like rubber.
This can be frozen and will keep in the fridge for a day.
IMPORTANT NOTE
Liver pate is unsuitable for pregnant women.
The acquisition of wealth is no longer the driving force in my life.
