Instructions

Roast the Potatoes
1

Preheat the oven to 200°C. Chop the potatoes into 2cm wide wedges (no need to peel). Pop the wedges onto a large baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer. TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary. When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf until golden, 25-35 mins. Turn halfway through.

Caramelise the Onion
2

Meanwhile, halve, peel and finely slice the red onion. Heat a drizzle of oil in large frying pan on medium heat and when hot, add the onion and a pinch of salt and sugar. Lower the heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and caramelised, 6-8 mins.

Shred the Duck
3

Meanwhile, remove the duck confit legs from their packet and discard the fat, skin and jelly. Use your hands to pull the meat from the bones and shred it into small pieces. When the onions are soft, stir the shredded duck into the pan along with the water for the duck (see ingredients for amount). Bring to the boil then lower the heat and bubble until reduced, 6-8 mins - you want the water to have evaporated, but for the duck to still be quite moist.

Prep your Buns
4

Meanwhile, grate the cheese and split open the brioche buns. Mix together the mustard and mayo in a small bowl. Put the buns on a baking tray and share half the mustard mayo between the inside of each bun. Preheat your grill to high (move the potatoes down to the bottom shelf if they are in the same oven).

Get Ready to Grill
5

Carefully spoon the duck confit mixture inside each bun, packing it in well. Sprinkle the Cheddar over each one, then pop under the grill until golden and bubbling, 3-4 mins.

Serve
6

Divide the wedges between your plates then serve the cheesy confit duck buns alongside. Finish with a handful of rocket on top of each and the remaining mustard mayo alongside for dipping your wedges. Enjoy!
