Christmas duck with fruit and cranberry-wine sauce


Compound:
Duck (weight is at your discretion. I had a small one - 1 kg.) - 1 pc.
Apple (sweet and sour, I have the Semerenko variety.) - 2 pcs.
Prunes (pitted) - 10 pcs.
Lemon juice - 3 tbsp. l.
Marjoram - 1 tsp.
Salt (to taste)
Black pepper (ground, to taste)
Cranberries (frozen) - 100 g
Red wine (semi-sweet) - 100 ml
Granulated sugar - 3 tbsp. l.
In fact, everything is extremely simple; even the most inexperienced housewife can handle it. And the result is excellent. But first you need to choose a duck. It is advisable, of course, to buy it at the market, from some granny. But not everyone has this opportunity. The main thing is that the duck is meaty (I always ask to make an incision on the back (so that it is not visible later when serving), the meat should not be very dark, and there should not be a lot of fat under the skin, and it should not be thick. So, the duck was chosen. Of course, if possible, it is better not to freeze it.
Now let's proceed directly to the preparation. Wash the duck, salt it (don’t forget to salt the inside too). Rub it with lemon juice.
Cut out the core of the apples and cut them into slices (medium thickness). Add washed prunes to half (no need to steam) and marjoram. Sprinkle the second half with lemon juice.
Sprinkle with a little lemon juice (I wrote the approximate amount of juice, in general, I just had lemon on hand).
Rub the duck with black pepper and stuff it with apples and prunes.
Place it on a baking sheet with the remaining apples next to it. Bake in an oven preheated to 180 degrees for about an hour (this is for my weight. In general, baking time is calculated at approximately an hour per kg).
While the duck is baking, prepare the sauce. To do this, mash the cranberries (in a blender or just a masher - at your discretion. I like to just mash with a masher so that the cranberries are not completely homogeneous, I even like to leave whole berries).
Add sugar.
And wine. We put it all on the fire and cook until it boils, then for another two minutes, no more, let it boil. At first I was distrustful of this sauce, since I was used to making a slightly different sauce for meat from cranberries. I do everything the same way, but instead of wine I add soy sauce. The sauce is spicy. Here I was afraid that it would just be sweet. But my fears were unfounded, the sauce turned out great.
Serve the duck hot with sauce.

Spicy honey duck on rice


Compound:
Green onion
Carrots - 1 pc.
Salt (coarse) - 3 tbsp. l.
Nutmeg (ground) - 1/2 tsp.
Black pepper - 1/2 tsp.
Cinnamon - 1/2 tsp.
Honey - 1/2 cup.
Broth - 1/2 cup.
Sunflower oil - 2 tbsp. l.
Olive oil - 2 tbsp. l.
Allspice - 1 tsp.
Bay leaf - 2 pcs
Garlic - 2 teeth.
Onions (large) - 3 pcs.
Saffron (or turmeric) - 1 tsp.
Rice (Arborio variety) - 1.5 cups.
Duck (about 2 kg) - 1 piece
This delicious dish will take about two and a half days to prepare. Or rather, after carrying out certain manipulations with the duck, we will leave it to marinate for 2 days. Don't be afraid of the length of the process - everything happens by itself, and what is the result!!!
So. This beauty will decorate our table! We take a duck carcass weighing about 2 kg. We divide it into 4 servings - into 4 pieces.
Make a mixture for the marinade: finely chop 1 onion, add salt, grated garlic, broken bay leaf, peppercorns and mix it all.
Carefully coat the duck pieces with this mixture, place them in a container with a lid and put them in the cold for 2 days.
After the 2 days allotted for the marinating process, thoroughly clean the duck of onions and spices. Place it in a bowl with high sides, pour vegetable oil on top and place it in a preheated oven for 2.5 hours. Make the fire low, place a bowl of water at the bottom of the oven - constantly monitor its level. After about 30 minutes the duck will be browned. It should be covered with a lid - a sheet from a springform pan, for example.
This is the rosy, juicy meat we will take out of the oven at the end.
While our duck is baking, we will take care of the delicious “cushion” on which our beauty will reign - we prepare rice.
We take the variety Arborio. It is valued for its ability to perfectly absorb the taste and aroma of other components of a dish, and this ability to complement and emphasize taste harmony will be very useful to us.
Place the rice in a saucepan and fill it with boiling water in a ratio of 1:2. Add some salt to taste, add 1/2 teaspoon of saffron (turmeric), nutmeg and 1 tbsp. l. rendered duck fat. Place on low heat and cook until done with the lid closed. Place the finished rice on the dish on which the duck will be served.
Duck with rice will be complemented by onions. We will also prepare it while our bird is baking.
Peel the onion and cut it into large rings.
Fry the onion in olive oil until browned, then simmer in the broth until tender.
Now let's start preparing the honey glaze - it is this that will put a ringing exclamation mark.
In a frying pan, mix honey, saffron (turmeric), cinnamon and ground black pepper. Heat the glaze over low heat.
After 2.5 hours of baking, we must drain off the resulting duck fat.
In three batches, coat the duck with glaze and return to the oven.
Something like this: take out the duck, grease it, bake for about 5 minutes. We took it out, lubricated it, put it back in hot oven. We grease it for the last time and put it in the now switched off oven.
The photo is not very clear - I almost dropped the whole structure - in one hand there is a brush, in the other - a camera, in the third... a form that had to be arranged near the window - to catch the light)
Stew the carrots in a small amount of boiling water for about 5 minutes and cut them into disks.

ALL! The cooking process is over, we assemble the entire dish.
There is already a “rice pillow” resting on a large plate. We put onions on it, and place our duck in honey glaze on top. Fragrant and beautiful!
Place carrot pieces around and decorate green onions. Hurry up to the table!

Duck in orange sauce


Compound:
Duck (fresh) - 400 g
Orange - 1 piece
Honey - 3 tbsp. l.
Soy sauce - 2 tbsp. l.
Ginger (fresh) - 1 tsp.
Vegetable oil - 2 tbsp. l.
Potatoes (for garnish) - 3 pcs.
Egg yolk (for garnish) - 1 pc.
Butter (for garnish) - 30 g
First, let's prepare all the ingredients for the duck. I took the legs, but you can use another part. The legs turn out more tender and softer.
Grate the ginger root on a fine grater. It is this that will give our dish a unique spicy taste and piquancy.
Grate the zest of a whole orange there (then squeeze the juice out of it), also on a fine grater, add vegetable oil, honey, soy sauce and orange juice. Mix. This is our sauce.
Salt and pepper the duck to taste, place it fat side down in a fireproof dish. Fat side down so that the fat dissolves and mixes with the sauce at the beginning of baking. It will taste better this way. Let them sit while we prepare the side dish.
For a side dish, boil the potatoes, make a puree, adding one yolk and butter. Using a sleeve with a figured jigging we make these beautiful little tricks. Place them on a baking sheet and bake in a hot oven until golden brown.
We cut the remaining orange, from which we squeezed the juice and grated the zest, into pieces and cover the duck with them. It will give an even stronger orange tint.
We put the duck in the oven for 20-25 minutes (depending on how young the duck was :)) Take it out when the fat has melted, turn it over and pour over the resulting sauce.
You need to pour the sauce every 5 minutes, or more often :), I pour it with a small amount of honey. This makes the skin crispy and even more golden.
Our potato side dish is ready. This is how it turned out :)
We take out the duck, place it on a dish, pour over the sauce and garnish with orange slices and garnish. Bon appetit!!!
