Roast Wild Duck
Preparation / Cooking time 40 mins
Mallard, the wild ancestor of the domestic duck, is my favourite game. The plumper the Bird, the tenderer it will be, but the secret is to salt it as much in advance as you can, to tenderise the Meat. This recipe is also the best approach for Wild Mallard, arguably the nicest Game Bird. It is tenderer than Pheasant, more flavoursome than Partridge and much more substantial than Pigeon.

Glazed Mallard with Orange & Star Anise
Preparation time 10 mins
Cooking time 25 mins
Mallard is a wild Duck with bags of rich flavour. It is much leaner than farmed Duck, so needs to be cooked hot and fast to stop it from drying out. This recipe crisps up the skin in a pan before roasting and basting with lots of Butter. The spiced glaze adds extra flavour; this is perfect served with Egg Noodles dressed with Soy and Sesame Oil and some shredded Chard.
