Ingredients
Method
Take the breasts and legs from the duck.
Put the legs into a pressure cooker and cook until tender.
Take the meat from the duck legs and blitz with some bread soaked in milk.
Form into balls and pane.
Slice the potatoes and black pudding and layer in a dish with the sage and butter and cook with a heavy weight on top.
Dice the squash and puree the trimmings. Parisiene the broccoli stalks and blanch. Blanch the squash cubes and the tender stem broccoli.
To serve, pan roast the duck to pink, deep fry the cromesquis and toast the quinoa.
Drag the squash puree onto the plates, carve the duck and top with the quinoa, place a square of layer cake next to the duck and top with the fritter.
Garnish with the broccoli stalks, broccoli fluerettes and the squash cubes.
