Ingredients needed 4 servings

Cooking tips

  • When deboning the duck, don't try to cut through the bones. Instead, insert the knife into the joint space between the bones for easier separation.
  • Do not discard the duck fat used for confit. Strain it and store it; it can be reused for over a week.
  • Always start cooking the duck breast skin-side down in a cold pan. This allows the internal fat to render slowly, resulting in crispy skin without burning.
  • Gravy sauce can solidify when it cools due to the duck fat content. Reheat it just before serving to ensure a smooth consistency.

Recommended for

  • Skilled cooks who want to learn the proper techniques for deboning a whole duck and authentic Western cooking methods (confit, rendering).
  • Those who enjoy the combination of crispy duck steak and sweet and tangy fruit garnish.
