A little exotic

Rinse the duck legs and set aside. Mix the remaining ingredients (except the wine) into a marinade and marinate the legs in it for at least 1 hour, preferably longer. Roughly remove the marinade from the legs and sear them in a little oil in a pan until they are crispy brown on all sides. Pour in the wine, add the marinade, turn the legs upside down, and place the lid on in the oven preheated to 180°C. Check occasionally to see if there is still enough liquid in the pan, adding a little water if necessary. After 45 minutes, turn the legs over (skin side up). After another 20 minutes, remove the lid. Check the color for the last 20-25 minutes, basting if necessary. Remove the legs, season the sauce, and thicken to taste.
