Ingredients
- 1 Muscovy duck breast
- 300 ml (3 tbsp) reduced duck stock
- 1 tbsp cream
- 1 sprig fresh green peppercorns
Instructions
Seal the duck breast in hot oil on both sides, then place in a hot oven to cook through for 2 to 3 minutes.
Meanwhile deglaze the pan with a dash of white wine, then add the rest of the wine, the duck stock and the peppercorns. Reduce for a minute or so, then add the cream to smooth the pepper taste.
Slice duck and plate with sauce, some fresh spinach wilted in a little butter and some caramelised apples.
