Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
Wash the duck and trim off excess fat. Pat it dry with paper towels and let it rest for 15 minutes.
Step 2
Meanwhile, grate the ginger and mix it with the breadcrumbs, nutmeg, cayenne pepper, and cinnamon.
Step 3
Add the grated apple (with skin), season with salt and pepper, and mix thoroughly.
Step 4
To 2 tablespoons of jam, add the lightly beaten eggs, pour into the filling, and knead with your hands.
Step 5
Stuff the duck with the prepared filling using your hands.
Step 6
Rub the duck with salt and pepper and place it in a baking dish, surrounding it with star anise.
Step 7
Place the duck in a preheated oven at 200 °C (392 °F) for 30 minutes, then remove and drain the fat (you can use it to roast quartered potatoes for a side dish).
Step 8
Carefully brush the remaining jam on the duck, pour 100-150 ml of water into the dish, surround the duck with mandarin quarters (with skin), and return it to the oven for another 30-40 minutes. For the last 10 minutes, you can place the duck under the broiler to achieve a crispy crust.
Step 9
Before serving, cut the duck into portion-sized pieces and drizzle with mandarin or orange juice.
