Sardine Pate

INGREDIENTS
2 cans sardines with bones, in EVOO
1 hard-boiled egg
1 tsp capers
2-2.5 Tbsp soft butter (more for creamier pate)
1/2 red onion
1 tsp mustard
A little fresh dill (or parsley -- or skip it, but dill adds a special touch!)

INSTRUCTIONS
  1. Drain the oil from the sardine cans.(Don't toss it -- save it for a tomato sauce!)
  2. Place the sardines in a food processor.
  3. Add the hard-boiled egg, capers, soft butter, red onion, dill, mustard, salt, pepper, and lemon juice.
  4. Blend everything until you get a smooth, creamy paste.
  5. For best results, let it rest in the fridge to firm up slightly. (But let's be honest... it's amazing right away too.)
