BUBBLE BUBBLE
Boil the kettle. Place a pot over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil and a knob of butter (optional). When hot, add the carrot chunks and fry for 3-4 minutes until slightly softened and starting to brown, shifting occasionally. Pour in 100ml of boiling water, cover with the lid, and leave to simmer for 6-7 minutes until soft. On completion, drain the excess water. Return the drained Carrots to the pot and stir through a knob of butter (optional) and season to taste.
GET QUACKING!
Pat the duck dry with paper towel. Using a sharp knife, cut broad, cross-hatch slits into the duck skin, without piercing the flesh. Place the duck breast in a cold pan skin-side down without oil (the duck breast will render its own fat). Place over a medium heat and let the duck fat render while the pan heats up. Fry for 5-8 minutes until the skin is crispy. Turn up the heat to medium-high, drain the excess duck fat and set aside for step 3. Flip the duck breast, and cook for 2-4 minutes on the other side (this time frame will yield a medium-rare result.) Remove from the heat and baste the duck breast in the honey-mustard basting sauce. Remove from the pan on completion, reserving the honey-mustard pan juices, and allow to rest for 3 minutes before slicing and seasoning.
MINTY Peas
Wipe down the pan and place it over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of the drained duck fat. Once hot, add the Peas and fry for 2-3 minutes until heated through. On completion, remove from the heat and stir through ¾ of the chopped mint and ¾ of the sliced spring onion. Season to taste and cover to keep warm until serving. In a separate bowl, toss the rinsed green leaves with a drizzle of olive oil and some seasoning.
