HONEY-LACQUERED DUCK WITH SOUR CHERRY SAUCE
A gorgeous, mahogany-coloured duck. The rich meat is set off by the tart cherry sauce. I would serve this with steamed or roasted broccoli. Developed for the RSC 2004 Contest.

Steps:
- Put 10-12 sage leaves into a small saucepan with 1 cup of water and bring to the boil; simmer for 7 minutes and remove from heat; remove leaves and allow to cool.
- Wash the duck out and pat dry with paper towels; season generously with salt and put on a plate in the refrigerator to air-dry for 1 hour (2 hours is even better ;-) ).
- In a small saucepan, combine sage infusion, honey, balsamic vinegar and soy sauce and bring to the boil; boil at medium-high heat for 7-8 minutes until mixture becomes slightly syrupy and is reduced to 2/3 of a cup; pour 1/3 cup+ 1 tblsp into measuring cup and keep remainder in saucepan.
- Preheat oven to 415F°.
- Put duck in roasting pan, breast-side-down and roast for ½ an hour (drain fat off, retain); turn duck breast-side-up and roast ½ an hour longer (drain fat off again, retain); brush duck with the honey glaze and continue roasting 15 minutes; after the 15 minutes, turn duck so that it is breast-side-down again and brush with more honey glaze, do this once more after 15 minutes then turn duck breast-side-up again, brush with glaze and roast for a final 15 minutes; in all, the duck will have roasted a total of 2 hours and have had 4 glazings, 1 up, 2 down, and the last one up again; remove roaster from oven and allow duck to stand for 10 minutes while you finish the sauce.
- Pour off the fat you have retained into a small container (duck fat is great for frying potatoes!) and pour any accumulated duck juices into the saucepan containing the remaining honey glaze; add the cherries and any accumulated cherry juices as well as the cinnamon and bring to a boil; boil for 7-8 minutes, or until cherry sauce has become slightly-thickened and syrupy (if you want your sauce slightly thicker, you can sprinkle 1/2-3/4 tsp of cornstarch over cherries).
- Carve duck (in our case, this just means quartering the duck), and serve with the sour cherry sauce.
- Note: I have a special double-lined roaster, with one inclined tray with a hole in it fitting over a classic pan, this allows the fat to drain off the roasting meat, drip through the hole, and gather in the pan underneath; if you do not own this type of pan, use a classic roaster but drain fat off roasting duck more often.

Tips:
- To make the crêpes, use a non-stick pan and make sure it is hot before adding the batter. Swirl the pan to evenly distribute the batter and cook for about 1 minute per side, or until golden brown.
- For the filling, use a sharp knife to score the skin of the duck breast and season it with salt and pepper. Cook the duck breast skin-side down in a hot pan until the skin is crispy and the meat is cooked through.
- To make the sauce, combine soy sauce, honey, Chinese five spice, and water in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.
- To assemble the crêpes, place a spoonful of the filling in the center of a crêpe and top with the sauce. Roll up the crêpe and serve hot.
- For a vegetarian version of this dish, replace the duck breast with tofu or roasted vegetables.
Conclusion:
Honey-spiced duck crêpes are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of sweet and savory flavors is sure to please everyone at the table. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a meal that is both impressive and delicious.
