Method

Ingredients

- 1 duck
- 500 ml Orangina
- 1 Sprigs Sage
- 1 Sprigs rosemary
- 2 Garlic cloves
- 1 Handful Sea salt
- 1 Handful Whole black peppercorns
- 6 Onions
- 2 Bay leaves
- 3 star anise
- 1 Sprigs Fresh thyme
- 1 cardamom seed

Method

1

Prepare some sea salt in a food processor, chop ¾ of the sage and rosemary with the garlic, add two hand-fulls of salt and some black pepper

2

Trim the excess fat from the inside of the bird, then rub the salt mixture over the skin and sprinkle a little salt on the inside of the duck

3

Heat an ovenproof cast iron pan and dry fry the duck on all sides until golden brown

4

Lift the bird from the pan and discard any excess fat

5

Return the bird to the pan and add the onions, star anise, bay leaf, and thyme; shake the pan so that onions do not burn and add a little water

6

Place the bird on top of the onions and place in a preheated oven 230C /Gas mark 8 for 30 minutes

7

Reduce the heat to 180C/Gas mark 4 and cook for a further hour (this time will need to be changed depending on the size of the duck); basting the duck regularly with its own juices. You might need to add a little water if the juices are reducing too much

8

To check if cooked, pierce the leg with a skewer, the duck will be ready when the juices coming out are clear. In the meantime place the Orangina sauce, the spices and the bay leaves in a pan and reduce down to one third very slowly until syrupy in consistency

9

When the bird is cooked, remove the duck and vegetables from the pan and skim off from any fat from the pan

10

Return the duck to the tray and pour the reduced Orangina over it, place in a hot oven 230°C for 3 minutes, baste the duck again with the juices from the pan and return to the oven. Repeat the process a few times until the duck is glossy and shiny

11

Remove from the oven and leave to stand for about 20 minutes before carving

12

Serve with roasted vegetables and the sauce
