If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck . . . fry it!

Duck is fatty but only really in a single thick layer between the skin and flesh – the meat itself is rich but lean. Get the fat out and use it for something else (Roasties)

Directions

Heat a ridged frying pan until its quite hot – it doesn’t need oil – and heat an oven to 180

Season and score the skin and put them skin-side down in a cold non-stick frying pan. Bring up to a medium heat and just let it go for about 5-10 minutes. The skin will be a bit brown and the meat shouldn’t really be cooked at all. This is about getting fat out, not about cooking.

Roll them in the rendered fat so they are covered on the other side too and put them skin-side down on the hot ridged pan for 3 minutes, just leave them alone, no need to move them.

Turn them over so they are skin-side up and put the pan in the oven for 10 minutes.

That’s it
