with a garden salad & crème fraîche
Hands on Time: 15 - 25 minutes
Overall Time: 25 - 30 minutes
Ingredients:
- Baby Potatoes
- Creme Fraiche
- Cucumber
- Free-range Duck Breast
- Free-range Duck Breasts
- Garlic Clove
- Garlic Cloves
- NOMU Provençal Rub
- Salad Leaves
From your kitchen:
- Oil (cooking, olive or coconut)
- Salt & Pepper
- Water
- Paper Towel
- Butter
BOIL & PREP
Place the Baby Potatoes in a pot of salted water over a high heat. Pop on the lid and bring to the boil. Once boiling, remove the lid and reduce the heat. Allow to simmer for 15-20 minutes until cooked through and soft. Remove from the heat, drain, and return to the pot. While the potatoes are boiling, cut the Cucumber into half-moons and rinse the Salad Leaves. Peel and grate the garlic. Loosen the crème fraîche with water in 5ml increments until a drizzling consistency.
DUCK… DUCK… GARLIC!
Pat the duck breast 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. Turn up the heat to medium-high and drain the excess duck fat, reserving it 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.) In the final 1-2 minutes, baste the duck with the grated garlic, ½ the rub and a knob of butter. Remove from the pan on completion and allow to rest for 3 minutes before slicing.
TOSS
When the potatoes are done, add the remaining rub, a drizzle of the reserved duck fat, and seasoning to the pot. Toss until fully coated. In a salad bowl, add the rinsed Salad Leaves, the Cucumber half-moons, a drizzle of oil, and seasoning.
