Easy to make, easy on the wallet, and a gorgeous centrepiece to add to your festive gathering!
Pork Apple Stuffing in Pancetta Cups served on the side instead of INSIDE the duck!
So this Christmas, you could spend less time in the kitchen and more time with your family!
Duck is not something I cook with on an everyday basis.
But every time I make it, I wonder why I dont.

Its time to get the story straight!!
A 2.3 kg / 4.5 lb duck cost me $20 from my local butcher.
It is around $22 $25 at large supermarkets.
Secondly, duck is alot easier to roast than a whole chicken for two reasons:
1.
40 minutes per kg / 20 minutes per pound.
Just see to it you pat the skin dry so you end up with crispy skin.

A simple sprinkle of spices on the skin, and a very quick sauce for the side.
Thats all there is to it!
In any case, stuffing made separately is so much more tasty because you get more brown crunchy bits.

Im sharing this in the hope that it might inspire your Christmas menu!
