We continue our journey through the city of Istanbul with Somer Sivrioglu from Sydney’s Efendy Restaurant. Somer tells us how to find the best food in the city, and speaks about the local fish industry, as well as sharing tips on how to cook fresh fish. Here he gives us a recipe for duck breast covered with a sour pomegranate sauce.

Ingredients

2 pieces duck marylands
Duck fat
100ml pomegranate molasses
Cinnamon sticks
Star anise
Nutmeg

Sauce
200ml tawny port
20 pomegranate seeds
5 dried sour plums

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 120°C.

Place the duck marylands into a deep oven tray and cover with the duck fat and the pomegranate molasses. Add the cinnamon sticks, star anise and nutmeg.

Bake in the oven for 4-4½ hours.

Meanwhile, glaze the pomegranates seeds and sour plums with the port.

Add the duck legs into the glaze, adding a spoonful of duck fat to give a shiny finish.

Cook for 30 minutes.

Serve over blanched greens of snake beans, broccoli or asparagus.
