How to Make the Most of Raspberry for Making Duck Recipes?
Roasted Duck Breasts with Raspberry and Orange Sauce
Ingredients
- 2 duck breasts (skin on)
- 165g raspberries (fresh or frozen)
- 1 tsp honey juice of one medium-sized orange
- pinch of salt
Recipe
- Fry the duck breast. Then pat the skin dry and make some holes in it on each breast side. Then lay it skin side down on a pan and set it on medium heat. Keep it till the skin becomes golden and crisp for about 7 minutes. And then turn it over and cook it for a minute. Lift the duck with the tongs on a dish and put it in the preheated oven to 220ºF/200ºC/gas mark 7 for 20 minutes.
- While the duck is put on a roast, you can put on the sauce. Remove the fat while you are frying the duck and add some salt. When it bubbles, mash the raspberries a little when you are stirring and squeeze the orange juice in. After a few seconds, it should be hot and bubbling. Blend it until it becomes smooth. Taste the sauce and fix the flavors as needed by adding more orange juice, salt or lemon or grapefruit. Then serve the warm sauce with sliced and roasted duck breasts.
