Ingredients

For the pasta

400g flour
½ tpsn salt
3 eggs
2 egg yolks
Splash olive oil

For the duck broth

1 duck
1 onion
1 stick celery
1 carrot
2 star anise
Sprigs of rosemary, sage, tarragon and thyme

For the ragout

1kg tomatoes, diced
Juice of ½ a lemon
1 tbsp sugar
3 tbsp olive oil
3 tbsp butter
1 onion, diced
4 cloves garlic
2 fresh bay leaves
Handful basil and parsley
Few sprigs thyme & rosemary
Grated pecorino cheese, to serve

Preparation

To make the pasta, make a well in the centre of the flour and slowly incorporate the rest of the ingredients into the flour.  Knead for a few minutes and then cover with cling film and rest in the fridge for at least ½ an  hour.

Cut the duck meat from the bones, discarding the fat, and place the bones in a stock pot with just enough water to cover.  Add remaining ingredients and simmer for 1 hour, skimming off the fat.

Place chopped tomatoes in a colander and pour over lemon juice and sugar, allowing the juice to drain for ½ an hour.

Caramelise the onion and garlic in the butter and olive oil.  Add the tomatoes, bay leaves and herbs.  Season and simmer for 1½hours, adding a little of the duck broth and tomato juice to keep the sauce runny.

While the sauce simmers gently brown the chopped duck meat in a little olive oil and butter before adding to the sauce and cooking for a further ½ hour.  The sauce should be rich and moist.

Roll the pasta to the desired thickness (no.5) then fold the pasta sheet and cut roughly into ribbons 2cm wide.  Boil in plenty of salted water until it is al dente, drain and moisten the pasta with a splash of olive oil.  Toss the ragout through the pasta.

Serve with grated pecorino cheese and a bowl of fresh radicchio salad.

I agree that the correct video, and recipe details, as aired during the show should be provided here on the web. Building a fan base to buy the series DVD and books is all well and good, but please make sure you give us a quality product. (Plus, wasn't there lots of sage in this recipie?)

I agree this is not the recipe for duck ragout seen on the TV. The one demonstrated had celery and a chilli added whole. Can I have the recipe as seen on the show because it looked fantastic.

Hot Tips

Red wine or white wine?

The general rule with wine is that red wine, with its richer and deeper flavours, is a great accompaniment to red meats, while white wine works well with white meats (fish and chicken). However take time to experiment, there are plenty of exceptions to the rules and with wine the rules are definitely made to be broken.

Glossary

Seasoned Pepper

A mixture of black pepper, other spices, and sweet pepper flakes. An alternative to plain black pepper.
