St Alvère in the Périgord :
the first truffle market
in France to have gone
on-line !
 


 

 


Ingredients

• 4 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 very finely chopped onions
• 400g walnuts
• 1 litre duck stock
• 6 fresh pomegranates
• 4 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
• 4 duck magrets
• Salt and black pepper
 








Duck Magret with Walnuts and Pomegranates


Serves 6


Method


Fry the onions in hot oil. Put in a saucepan and add the walnuts, stock, salt and pepper. Stir, bring to the boil and leave to simmer for 20 minutes without covering.

Cut the pomegranates in two and scoop out the seeds. Put the seeds from one pomegranate aside and blend the rest in the food processor. Strain the juice and add the sugar and freshly squeezed lemon juice.

Cut four diagonal slits in the skin of each magret. Heat the remaining oil in a frying pan and add the magrets.

Cook for 10 minutes over a low flame until the skin is light and crisp, tipping out excess oil from time to time. Turn the magrets over and cook for a further 3 to 4 minutes. Put to one side on a plate.

Deglaze the frying pan with the pomegranate sauce, add the walnuts and stock, and leave to simmer for 15 minutes.

Coat the thinly-sliced magrets with the sauce and decorate with the pomegranate flesh kept aside for this purpose.
Serve the rest of the sauce separately in a sauce-boat.
