"This recipe was part of a collection found in a Wall Street Journal article about fish sauce. The recipe was provided by Andrea Nguyen. We love pate, and this sounds like something that is equally scrumptious!"

Step by Step Method

Step 1

Use a paring knife to remove membranes holding liver lobes together. Wash and pat dry with paper towel, then cut livers into 1-inch chunks. Use a chef's knife to chop coarsely, or place in a mini food processor and pulse 10-12 times. Transfer to a bowl and stir in 1 tablespoon parsley. Set aside near stove.

Step 2

In a small skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Lower heat slightly, add liver mixture and cook, stirring, until the liver darkens slightly, about 1 minute.

Step 3

Season with fish sauce and pepper, then sprinkle on flour. Stir to combine then add broth or water. Cook, stirring constantly, as mixture bubbles and eventually thickens, about 3 minutes.

Step 4

Remove from heat and stir in lemon juice and half of zest. Set aside, partially covered, to cool.

Step 5

Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350 degrees and position a rack in the middle. Place bread slices on a baking sheet and brush with the olive oil. Bake about 15 minutes, or until crisp and golden in spots.

Step 6

To serve, spread liver mixture over crostini. Garnish with remaining parsley and lemon zest. Cut each crostino in half on the diagonal, if desired.
