Back to the Poultry Index |
Pre-heat your oven to 375F.
Put the duck legs in one layer in a roasting tin on a bed of rosemary sprigs and garlic cloves. Sprinkle with salt and five-spice powder. Roast for 1 hour.
In a small pan, bring the wine and jelly to a gentle simmer, stirring to dissolve the jelly, then continue to simmer for 5 mins.
When the duck has been cooking for an hour remove it from the oven and spoon off almost all the fat (save it in a jar in the fridge for roasting potatoes).
Pour the wine mixture around the duck and return to the oven for 10–15 minutess to finish cooking and reduce the sauce.
