Ingredients:

duck breast, skin scored

Juice of 6 tangerines

2 tablespoons Mascarpone

Salt and pepper

¼ to ½ cup of dried cranberries

Equipment:

oven

frying pan

aluminum foil

sauce pan

blender

Cooking instruction summary:

  1. Preheat oven at 350. In an ovenproof skillet heat a shadow of oil on high heat. Generously salt and pepper both sides of the duck breast. When the skillet is hot, add the duck skin side down. Cook until the skin is golden brown, about 5 minutes, turn to the other side and cook for 3 minutes. Turn again, skin side up, discard all of the fat from the pan and place in the hot oven. Cook for another 10 to 15 minutes.
  2. Remove from the oven and cover with aluminum foil to keep warm.
  3. Meanwhile in a separate small sauce pan place the dried cranberries and the tangerine juice. Cook over medium heat until the cranberries have softened and the juice is reduced. Lower the heat and add the mascarpone. When the mascarpone is melted and the juice starts to thickens, remove from the heat. With an immersion hand held mixer, puree the mascarpone, tangerine-cranberries sauce until nice and smooth. Add less than a tablespoon of the juices from the duck. Mix well. Return the pan to the heat and warm for a minute or so.
  4. Spread the sauce on the bottom of the plate and serve the duck sliced over it.

Food Joke

Reminiscing Ruth, Hetty and Naomi, all three in their 80s, are sitting together in their retirement home reminiscing about the good old days. Ruth says, "I remember when I used to be able to buy lovely big cucumbers at the greengrocers for no more than 1p each. They were giants , not like the little cucumbers on sale today." Hetty then says, "Well I remember the giant onions I used to be able to buy for ½ p each. Every week, I always bought two of them (and she demonstrates the size of the two onions with her hands as she talks) for my chicken soup." Naomi, who has been sitting quietly listening to Ruth and Hetty, then says, "I couldn’t hear a word either of you were saying, but I remember the guy you were talking about."
