How to make mushroom pate

Melt the butter and olive oil together in a saucepan and add the garlic. Fry gently for a minute or two until golden and then add the mushrooms and thyme. If you have a bottle of red wine handy, add a splash to the mushrooms while they are cooking for extra flavour. Cook mushrooms for around 10 minutes on a low heat and then add the creme fraiche. Cook for a further two minutes and then remove from the heat. Mix in the crumbled feta and put in the fridge. Once cool, blitz the mixture in a blender until smooth.
