Quantity amendment

After testing this recipe, I have amended the recipe quantities for 2 people using a Gressingham duck crown, though it could just as easily have used 2 duck breasts.

Original recipe below

Method

  1. Rub the seasoning and marjoram into each duck piece.
  2. Heat 15 ml of the oil in a large saucepan or casserole, until slightly smoking.
  3. Add the duck pieces until they are lightly browned on all sides.
  4. Add the water, cover and simmer for 30-40 minutes until the duck pieces are tender.
  5. Heat the remaining oil in a frying pan and sauté the onions until they are soft.
  6. Add them and the grated cucumber to the duck about 10 minutes before the end of the cooking time.
