Duck, fried with oranges
Orange duck also came from Asia, and specifically this recipe comes from Thailand. In it, duck legs are first browned, and then mixed with pieces of oranges, poured with sauce and reach the ready for quenching.
Ingredients:
- duck legs - 2 pcs .;
- oranges - 4 pcs .;
- chicken broth - 340 ml;
- soy sauce - 15 ml;
- sugar - 35 g.
Preparation
Since there is a lot of fat under the skin of the duck, which should be heated during roasting, the legs are laid on a dry heated pan and kept until the fat begins to come out of them, and the skin itself becomes not pronounced golden. Crispy duck mixed with orange slices (you can directly with the skin and zest), pour broth, soy, add sugar and a pinch of salt. For the aroma, many prefer to put in the sauce an anise star and a cinnamon stick. Then the fire under the frying pan should be reduced, and leave the bird to languish in sauce for an hour. During this time, the liquid will have time to evaporate, and the rich sauce will become more like a syrup.
If you decide to serve this dish in a traditional manner, then boil the jasmine rice. Serve the duck separately from rice, watering the sauce and decorating the remaining spices if desired.
