- Chicken
- Chicken Stock Sachet
- Chicken Stock Sachets
- Duck Breast
- Duck Breasts
- Fresh Rosemary
- Garlic Cloves
- Gastrique Liquid
- Green Leaves
- Organic Gooseberries
From your kitchen:

- Paper Towel
- Water
- Oil (cooking, olive or coconut)
ROAST TATERS
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread out the halved Baby Potatoes, rosemary sprigs, and whole, unpeeled Garlic Cloves on a roasting tray. Coat in oil and season. Roast in the hot oven for 30-35 minutes until cooked through and golden, shifting halfway.
SCORE THE SKIN
Pat the Duck Breast dry with some paper towel. Using a sharp knife, score the fat by cutting slits through the surface of its skin in a broad cross-hatch pattern, without going too deep and piercing the flesh. Season and set aside until frying.
GOOSEBERRY GASTRIQUE
Set aside about 3 rinsed gooseberries for the salad. Place a pan over a medium heat with a small drizzle of oil and a knob of butter. When the butter begins to foam, fry the remaining gooseberries for 2-3 minutes until softened, shifting occasionally. Reduce to a low heat and stir in the Gastrique Liquid. Allow the sauce to thicken for 2-4 minutes until reduced by half. Squeeze in half of the Chicken/" title="View all our recipes with Chicken at eCook">Chicken/chicken-stock-sachet/" title="View all our recipes with Chicken Stock Sachet at eCook">Chicken Stock Sachet, stir through for a minute, and add black pepper to taste. Remove from the pan on completion. Cover to keep warm and set aside for serving.
PAN FRIED DUCK
Wipe down the pan and return it to a medium heat. When hot, place the Duck Breast in the pan skin-side down without oil (the duck breast will render its own fat). Fry for 5-8 minutes until the skin is crispy. Turn up the heat to medium-high, flip, and cook for 2-4 minutes on the other side. (This time frame will yield a medium-rare result.) Remove from the pan on completion and allow to rest for 3 minutes before slicing.
FRESH ELEMENTS
Halve the fresh gooseberries. Toss the rinsed Green Leaves with the fresh gooseberry halves and a drizzle of olive oil. Season to taste.
