Russian Style Roasted Duck


Description

Tender and juicy with crispy skin.

Ingredients

1 duck about 5 lb
1 cup full fat mayonnaise
Salt and freshly cracked black pepper
5-6 garlic cloves, crushed

Directions

Preheat oven to 325 degrees.

Remove the giblets and neck, then rinse the duck and pat dry. Set the neck aside for making broth with the bones later. In a small bowl combine mayonnaise, some salt and black pepper and crushed garlic. Rub the mayonnaise mixture inside and outside the duck. Place in a bowl, cover with plastic and let it marinate in the refrigerator overnight.

When you are ready to bake, place the duck on a rack in a roasting pan. Cover with the aluminium foil or place it in the oven bag and roast the duck for about two hours at 325 degrees, then raise the oven temperature to 375 degrees and continue cooking for about further 30 min until done. The duck is done when the breast skin is browned, the skin around the legs is beginning to pull away from the bone and the juices are no longer pink or red.

Serve with mashed potato or your favourite side dish.

Enjoy!!!
