How to make it

  1. 1

    Rub the duck legs with the coarse salt and peppercorns and rest in the fridge at least 1 hour.

  2. 2

    Rinse off the salt and dry completely.

  3. 3

    Put the legs in a pot, pour in enough fat to cover, and add the garlic and thyme.

  4. 4

    Cook slowly at around 90°C for 1 hour 30 minutes to 2 hours (confit).

  5. 5

    Lift out and crisp the skin side in a pan before serving.

You can fix this

If it hasn't burned or stuck to the pan, it can still be fixed.

  • There is little liquid here, so water thins the meat flavor along with the salt. If it is too salty, stretch it with stock only, a little at a time.
