Roasted Duck

Name: Roasted Duck
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 2 duck breasts (about 600 g); ¾ tsp Rock salt; 2 pinches Freshly peppers; 250 g button mushrooms; 10 Ripe Danish plums; 6 Small, Fresh rosemary Twigs; 1 tbsp Dark balsamic vinegar; 100 ml Marsala or sherry; 2 tbsp Cold butter; 1 kilo Small Baked potatoes in Halves

A lovely dish with mushrooms, plums and rosemary. Serve with oven-baked potatoes.

Instructions

Step 1

Make small incisions on the skin side of the duck, and fry the duck with the skin side down, at low heat with the lid on for approximately 15 minutes. Sprinkle the duck breasts with 0.5 tsp salt and 1 pinch of pepper and let them rest, covered until served. Save 1 tablespoon of duck fat for later.

Step 2

Meanwhile, wash the mushrooms and cut them into quarters. De-seed the plums and cut them in half. Fry both mushrooms and plums until golden on a medium heat with rosemary in the duck fat. Remove the mushrooms and plums and keep them warm.

Step 3

Add balsamic vinegar and let it boil until it's almost gone. Add wine, lower the heat and allow to boil for approximately 2 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the cold butter until the sauce lightens slightly. Season with 0.25 tsp salt and 1 pinch of pepper, cut the duck meat into thin slices and serve it together with baked potatoes halves.

Enjoy!
