Method
-
1The night before you cook your duck, it's best to take it out of the packaging and rinse the bird. Pat the duck dry with a kitchen towel and place it on a cooling rack over a baking tray. Allow it to air dry in the fridge overnight.
-
2The next day, preheat your oven to 220°C/ 210°C fan oven.
-
3Massage a generous pinch of salt over the skin and drizzle a little bit of olive oil. Place the duck, breast side up in a Le Creuset 29cm Signature Oval Casserole and roast for 20 minutes.
-
4Remove from the oven and reduce the oven temperature to 180°C. Place your garlic, red onions and half of the sage leaves under and around the duck in the casserole and return it to the oven to cook for 1 hour with the lid on.
-
5Decant the marmalade into a small saucepan and bring to a simmer, allowing it to heat through. Remove the lid of your casserole and roast the duck for another 30 minutes. Then using a basting brush, glaze the duck with half of the marmalade. Return the duck to the oven for 20 minutes uncovered.
-
6Remove again and carefully arrange the remaining sage leaves along the surface of the duck breasts to create a beautiful pattern. Baste the duck with more marmalade and roast for 10 minutes.
-
7Allow the duck to rest for 20 minutes before carving and serving.
