Cooking Steps

Get Prepped
1
  • Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
  • Peel and slice the carrot and parsnip into ½ cm thick rounds.
  • Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
  • Halve, peel and chop the shallot into small pieces.
Start the Dauphinoise
2
  • Place a pot over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • Once hot, fry the garlic for 1 min. Add 100ml water (per 2P), stock, muscat and creme fraiche.
  • Carefully add the carrots and parsnips to the sauce. Season with ¼ tsp salt (per 2P) and ½ tsp pepper (per 2P).
  • Bring to the boil, cover and lower heat to medium.
  • Simmer until the veg is parboiled, stirring regularly, 10-15 mins. In the last 5 mins, stir through ½ tbsp flour (per 2P), mix well and allow to thicken. 
Cook the Duck
3
  • Score the skin of the duck breasts.
  • Place in a cold pan, skin-side down. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw duck and its packaging. Duck is cooked when browned on the outside.
  • Turn the heat to medium-high and sear until the skin is a golden brown colour, 10-15 mins.
  • Turn and cook for another 2-3 mins. Reserve the duck fat to use later.

TIP: Cook for 5-10 mins extra if you'd like it more well done.

Bake in the Oven
4
  • Carefully transfer the veg and sauce to an appropriately-sized oven dish. 
  • Pop into the oven to bake until cooked through, 15-20 mins.
  • Pop the duck breasts into another oven dish and cook, 12-15 mins.
Season the Salad
5
  • Meanwhile, trim half the salad leaves (per 2P), then thinly slice or tear into bite-sized pieces.
  • Place the pan with duck fat over medium-high heat.
  • Add the shallot and cook until softened, 3-4 mins.
  • Add a splash of water and stir well to make a sauce with the cooking juices.
  • Just before serving, mix a drizzle of oil with the vinegar, salt and pepper in a salad bowl. Just before serving, add the salad and toss to combine.
Dish Up
6
  • Allow the duck to rest for a few mins, slice and divide between plates.
  • Pour the shallot sauce over the top.
  • Serve the dauphinoise and salad alongside.
