Slow-Roasted Duck Massaman

– MASSAMAN CURRY PASTE

1 tbsp vegetable oil

4 duck legs

8 eschallots or small red onions, peeled

mashed potato, to serve

coriander (cilantro), to serve

toasted coconut flakes, to serve

Preheat oven to 160°C.

Place duck legs and eschallots in an oven-proof casserole dish just large enough to fit everything in one layer.

Heat oil over medium heat and fry my MASSAMAN CURRY PASTE for about a minute or until it starts to smell yummy. Add the COCONUT MILK, DRIED HERBS & CHILLIES and PEANUTS. Simmer for 5 minutes to allow the flavours to infuse. Remove from heat and pour curry sauce over duck legs. Cover with foil and roast for 2 hours or until fork tender.

Serve with mashed potato and topped with coriander and toasted coconut flakes.
