Duck Leg Confit with Mashed Potatoes
Main Dishes • Azerbaijani
Description
Duck fat is hard to find in stores. You need to cut the fat along with the skin from a whole duck, finely slice the duck fat, and render it in a deep skillet. Aim to render as much fat as possible so that the slices eventually turn into crispy cracklings.
Ingredients
- Duck wings 2 pieces
- Thyme 0 oz
- Rosemary 0 oz
- Ground Black Pepper a pinch
- Salt a pinch
- Garlic 6 cloves
- Duck Fat 5 oz
- Shallot 2 heads
- Potato 20 oz
- Butter 0 oz
Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
Prepare the necessary ingredients.
Step 2
Place a pinch of salt and a pinch of black pepper into a mortar.
Step 3
Add thyme and rosemary.
Step 4
Crush the herbs and spices with a pestle, coat the drumsticks in the mixture, and let them marinate for at least two hours.
Step 5
Arrange the drumsticks in a small baking dish so that they are positioned closely together.
Step 6
Surround the duck with garlic and shallots, and pour fat over it until it reaches the edges of the dish. Place it in a preheated oven at 340°F for at least two hours. At least, because the longer the duck marinates and roasts, the more flavorful it becomes.
Step 7
Boil the potatoes until tender.
Step 8
Drain the water.
Step 9
Mash with a piece of butter, then pass the puree through a sieve.
Step 10
Serve.
