This is a very traditional fish pate recipe. Made from smoked mackerel with a touch of whisky to give it an added "zing"

5fl oz Double Cream
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 tablespoons horseradish sauce

Method:

Season with the salt and pepper to own taste. Then pack the mixture into buttered dish (or dishes) and chill in the refrigerator. The mixture should serve 4-6 and should be served with oatcakes or warm buttered toast.
