Instructions
 

Mashed potatoes

  • Peel and quarter the potatoes and cook in boiling salted water for approx. 15-20 minutes until soft.
  • Drain the water, put the potatoes back in the saucepan + season with milk, butter and salt & pepper.
  • Using a potato masher, mash until a creamy mass is formed.

duck

  • Pat the duck breast dry + scratch the skin in a diamond shape with a knife.
  • Cook the duck breast in a hot pan on the skin side for around 8 minutes, then continue frying for 6 minutes on the other side. Salt on both sides. Take the duck breast out of the pan and wrap it in aluminum foil to keep it warm.

vegetables

  • Wash the kale + pour approx. 1 liter of boiling water over a sieve + allow to drain.
  • Dice bacon + in the same pan as the duck, sear the bacon with the remaining fat from the duck.
  • If the bacon is crispy on all sides, the kale is added and steamed - this for about 5 minutes over medium heat.
  • Now add 100 ml of hot broth + boil down for around 3 minutes.
  • Arrange the mashed potatoes in the middle of a plate, cut the duck breast into slices and spread over the mashed potatoes. Top with kale and bacon ... ... and enjoy! 🙂 mmmhh! 🙂
