Preheat a large non-stick pan.

Add a little olive oil to the pan and swirl it around.

Add onions to the pan and toss to coat them in oil.

Add mushrooms to the pan and cook together with the onions.

Caramelize the onions and mushrooms over medium heat for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent burning.

Once caramelized and dark brown, remove from heat.

In a food processor, add walnuts and pulse until finely chopped.

Carefully add the hot onion and mushroom mixture to the food processor.

Add a little white pepper, salt, a dash of agave, and a splash of marsala to the food processor.

Puree the mixture, scraping down the sides as needed until smooth.

Transfer the pate to a bowl and serve with toasted bread and chopped parsley.
