We're all throwing away a scary amount of food
Finally - we are all throwing away a scary amount of food we could be eating seven million tonnes of it every year according to Love Food Hate Waste. The average UK family bins £60 worth of food every month, which adds up to over £700 a year. This is not only a waste of our money it's bad for the environment, too.
10% of greenhouse gases
According to the IPCC Report Food Waste alone also causes 10% of greenhouse gases responsible for global warming
We can all learn a few simple techniques, to reduce the amount of food we waste and still eat healthily.

A quick Duck Pasta recipe featuring umami flavours using Leftover Duck Fat and flavoured with Rosemary and Lemon. Topped with Leftover Roast Duck Slices and Cheese.
Preparation/Cooking time over 4 hrs (the longer the better!)
Roast Ducks Leftover bones and carcass are perfect to make a tasty Broth for your Noodle Soup, so dont be so quick to throw them away. There are so much essence and flavours in the bones that are too good to waste. In addition, bone Broths are known to carry high nutrition values and are particularly known to carry a high amount of Collagen.
Pairing duck with peas is a great tradition. There is even a play called Duck with Peas, and a copy of the script published with beautiful engravings by Thomas Crawshall. But blessed is the kitchen that has leftover duck to make this venerable hash, the supreme leftovers dish. Quantities are really at the cooks discretion. Any shortfall in meat can be made up with eggs, bacon or vegetables, in this instance peas, perhaps adding a few pea shoots to the mix. A great pan of hash taken to the table generally elicits a happy hum. This can be used for leftover roast meats in general. Trenchermen might need 2 eggs each.
Use this recipe as a template, not dogma. Feel free to mix and match ingredients. Note that this recipe assumes Leftover Meat. If you are using fresh Duck Breasts, add them right after the Scallions, Garlic and Chilies go in.
Peking Duck is a staple in Beijing, China. Traditionally, the whole roast Duck is skilfully carved in front of guests. The thin shavings of the crispy skin are first eaten with Chinese steamed Pancakes, together with a variety of Condiments. The Leftover Meat is then turned into a stir-fry, sometimes served together with Lettuce Leaves to make into Lettuce Wraps, whereas the remaining carcass is then turned into a rich Duck Broth to make Soup. Different restaurants also have different offerings for the Leftover Peking Duck dishes but a very popular way to serve the Leftover Duck Meat is by making a Duck Fried Rice.
The best Cottage Pies and Shepherds Pies are made with leftover roast Meat, not Mince. In fact, the whole purpose of these Pies was to eke out the leftovers.
Philippa Davis Grouse Stroganoff gets leftover Game out of the freezer and onto the table. If you dont have any Grouse left, Partridge or Pheasant work just as well. Remember, the Meat on two Grouse or two Partridge is the equivalent of one Pheasant. Serve with a sprinkle of Paprika and extra Parsley on top. Delicious with Rice or Pasta like Tagliatelle.
