Christmas ducks are not made only for the holy night. With a dash of love and a bit of salt it is an amazingly delicious meal at any time of the year.
As I lately have a little time, I had been looking on the internet the other day. In need of fresh, intriguing tips, inspirational recipes that We have never tasted before, to surprise my loved ones with. Looking for quite some time but could not come across too many interesting things. Just before I wanted to give up on it, I ran across this tempting and easy dessert by chance on Suncakemom. The dessert looked so fabulous on its snapshot, it called for quick action.
It had been not so difficult to imagine how it’s created, its taste and how much boyfriend will probably love it. Actually, it is very easy to impress the guy in terms of puddings. Yes, I am a blessed one. Or possibly he is.Anyway, I went to the site and used the precise instuctions that had been combined with great photographs of the method. It really makes life much simpler. I can suppose it’s a bit of a hassle to shoot photographs in the midst of cooking in the kitchen as you may will often have gross hands thus i really appreciate the time and effort she devote to build this blogpost .
That being said I’m empowered to present my personal recipe in the same way. Appreciate your the idea.
I was fine tuning the original recipe to make it for the taste of my loved ones. Need to mention it had been an awesome outcome. They enjoyed the taste, the thickness and enjoyed having a treat such as this in the midst of a hectic workweek. They ultimately demanded more, a lot more. Hence the next time I am not going to make the same mistake. I’m gonna twin the volume to make them delighted.
This whole roast duck recipe recipe was first appeared on SunCakeMom.
Duck:
Whole:
Rub some paprika and salt onto the duck and place it onto a tray.
Put the duck into the oven.
Check the duck in every 20 minutes. Flip it over then pour some grease over the skin.
Done
Pieces:
Take the duck apart.
Cut off the loose fat and skin and cut them up into ½” / 1.5cm pieces. This will provide the grease to keep duck moist during roasting.
Put the small bits in the bottom of a high walled dish, like a Pyrex and the bigger pieces on top.
Close the dish then put it into the oven for 3 to 4 hours on 350°F / 180°C
Check occasionally if everything is alright. When the meat on top seems to be roasting move them to the bottom bringing the pieces from the bottom to the top.
When the meat is tender, take the pieces out and skin upward, place them onto a tray on the top shelf of the oven for additional roasting.
Pour a bit of grease on top and roast it for about 10 minutes until the skin gets the desired golden brown color.
Mashed Potatoes:
Peel, dice and rinse the potatoes.
Cook potatoes until tender for about 20 minutes then drain water.
Add Creme Fraiche, salt and duck grease to the potato.
Mash and mix everything together.
Cabbage stew:
Take the middle part out of the cabbage.
Slice it up.
Pour oil into a pan and heat it up.
Add onion, salt and saute it for about 5 minutes until it gets a glassy / translucent look.
Turn the heat down to medium low and while stirring occasionally, caramelize the onion naturally. This gives the dish a dash of sweet flavor, however it’ll take about 15 to 20 minutes.
Add the sliced cabbage and turn the heat to high then saute the cabbage while stirring continuously for 10 – 15 minutes until it gets a glassy / translucent look. We may need a bigger frying pan to accommodate the whole cabbage, otherwise it must be done in batches. When the cabbage loses it’s humidity, it will collapse in size, thus a smaller frying pan can be used to cook it ready.
Add water and vinegar then put the lid on and steam cook it until tender on medium to low heat for about 30 – 40 minutes.
Let it to rest for 10 minutes before serving, allowing the flavors to settle.
