  • Hello Everyone,

    Here is a French Recipe for all you who wants to try French cooking. โค๐Ÿฑ

    ๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ท Confit de Canard

    A classic, hugely popular recipe from France. You can make it time and time again and it just gets better. Canard means duck, and Confit as a cooking term describes when food is cooked in grease at a lower temperature for a longer time.

    Ready in: 2h 30 minutes
    Servings: 4

    Ingredients

    4 Bay Leaves, roughly torn
    4 Garlic Cloves, roughly chopped
    Handful Thyme Sprigs, roughly torn
    4 Ducks Legs
    1 Deciliter White Wine

    1.1The day before you want to make the dish, scatter half the salt, half the garlic and half of the herbs over the base of a small shallow dish. Lay the duck legs, skin-side up, on top, then scatter over the remaining salt, garlic and herbs. Cover the duck and refrigerate overnight. This can be done up to 2 days ahead.

    2. Pour the wine into a saucepan that will snugly fit the duck legs in a single layer.

    3. Brush the salt off the duck legs and place them, skin-side down, in the wine. Cover the pan with a lid and place over a medium heat.

    4. As soon as the wine starts to bubble, turn the heat down to the lowest setting and cook for 2 hours, checking occasionally that the liquid is just barely simmering.

    5. After 2 hours, the duck legs should be submerged in their own fat and the meat should feel incredibly tender when prodded. Leave to cool.

    6. The duck legs are now cooked and can be eaten immediately โ€“ or you can follow the next step if you like them crisp. If you are preparing ahead, pack the duck legs tightly into a plastic container or jar and pour over the fat, but not the liquid at the bottom of the pan. Cover and leave in the fridge for up to a month, or freeze for up to 3 months. The liquid you are left with makes a tasty gravy, which can be chilled or frozen until needed.

    7. To reheat and crisp up the duck legs, heat oven to 400ยฐ F or 200ยฐ C. Remove the legs from the fat and place them, skin-side down, in an ovenproof frying pan. Roast for 30-40 mins, turning halfway through, until brown and crisp.

    8. Serve with the reheated gravy, a crisp salad and some crisp golden potatoes or mash.

    All the best of luck,
