Instructions

Roast the Carrots
1

Preheat your oven to 200°C. Bring a large saucepan of water with 1/2 tsp salt to the boil for the potatoes. Trim and halve the chantenay carrots lengthways (no need to peel). Pop the carrots onto a large baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer. Peel the garlic cloves, then pop into a small piece of foil with a drizzle of oil and scrunch to enclose them. Pop onto the carrot tray. When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf for 10 mins.

Boil the Potatoes
2

Meanwhile, peel and chop the potatoes into 2cm chunks. When boiling, add the potatoes to the water and cook until you can easily slip a knife through, 15-20 mins.

Fry the Duck
3

When the carrots have roasted for 5 mins, put a frying pan on medium-high heat (no oil). Once hot, lay the duck in the pan, skin-side down, and fry until the skin is golden, 5 mins. Flip, then sear the other side for 1 min more. Take the carrot tray out the oven, remove the garlic parcel and set aside, then turn the carrots. Transfer the duck to the baking tray, skin-side up. Drizzle with honey and return the tray to the top shelf of the oven for the remaining cooking time, 15 mins. TIP: If your honey has hardened, pop it in a bowl of hot water for 1 min. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands after handling raw duck and its packaging.

Make the Sauce
4

While the duck and carrots roast, drain any excess fat from the frying pan and return to medium heat. Pour in the water for the sauce (see ingredients for amount), redcurrant jelly and red wine stock paste. Bring to the boil, stirring to combine, then simmer until rich and glossy, 6-8 mins. TIP: Add a splash of hot water to loosen if needed.

Garlic Mash Time
5

Once the potatoes are cooked, drain in a colander and return to the pan, off the heat. Remove the garlic from the foil and mash with a fork, then add to the potatoes. Add a knob of butter and a splash of milk (if you have any) and mash until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Cover with a lid to keep warm.

Serve
6

When the duck is cooked, transfer to a board and leave to rest for a few mins before slicing each breast widthways into 5 slices. IMPORTANT: The duck is cooked when no longer pink in the middle. Divide the garlic mash between your plates and lay the sliced duck on top. Spoon over the redcurrant sauce and serve with the roasted carrots alongside. Enjoy!
