Confit Duck
Confit Duck
5 Whole Star Anise
1 Green Chilli
1 Red Chilli
1 stick of Cinnamon
1 stick of Lemon Grass
1 Twig of Thyme
Zest of 1 Orange
2 Inches of Fresh Ginger
2 Cloves of Garlic
2 Tablespoons of Chinese 5 Spice
1 Cup of Course Moldon Sea Salt
2 Litres of Goose Fat (alternatively cooking oil)


Method

Take all of the above other than the oil, sea salt & chinese 5 Spice, and without peeling or removing any seeds blitz up in the kitchen whiz until finely chopped. Then in a roasting tray sprinkle half of the mixture onto the bottom of the tray. Then half the salt & 5 spice. Push the duck legs onto this mixture and then cover with the remainder of the mixture.

Cover with Cling Film and marinate in the refrigerator for 3 days. This will impart all the flavours in to the meat whilst the salt draws out the liquids and also acts as a preservative.

Cooking

Remove the duck from the refrigerator and scrape as much of the mixture off as possible. In a high sided roasting tray cover the Legs with the goose fat or oil and cover with tin foil. Place in a cool oven, gas mark 3, 150°C or 300F and cook slowly for 2 to 3 hours. The oil should never boil. Remove from the oven and allow to cool and gently remove the Duck from the fat.
