  1. RED & ORANGE ROAST

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the Carrot wedges and the cabbage chunks on a roasting tray. Coat in oil, ¾ of the rub, and seasoning. Pop in the hot oven and roast for 25-30 minutes until cooked through and slightly crispy, shifting halfway.

  2. FABULOUSLY FATTY

    When the roast has 15 minutes remaining, pat the duck dry with paper towel. Place 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, pouring out any excess rendered fat as you go. Turn up the heat to medium-high, flip the duck breast, and cook for 2-4 minutes on the other side. (This time frame will yield a medium-rare result.) In the final minute, baste with the remaining rub. Remove from the pan and rest for 3 minutes before slicing. Lightly season the slices.

  3. DON’T LEAF OUT THE BALSAMIC

    In a salad bowl, combine the shredded leaves, the balsamic vinegar, a drizzle of oil and seasoning.

  4. SERVICE, PLEASE!

    Make a bed of the dressed leaves. Top with the roasted veg and the duck slices. Simply delicious!
