But this is not so - you just need to follow a few simple rules. Firstly, you should buy a carcass from trusted sellers, preferably it should be home-made. In addition, after a little practice, you will determine not only the taste, but also the smell of the preparedness of the dish.

Duck with breadcrumbs and apples

If you want to save time onpreparing a dish, it is desirable that the duck was already gutted and plucked in advance. Then you will only have to scorch it and rinse it thoroughly. Buy the bird on the market, well, the most ideal option is to grow it yourself. Of course, this option is not at all, but there is always a supermarket or a market. Ingredients:

• three red and two green apples (buy fruit of medium size)
• one duck (about a half-kilogram carcass)
• salt - to taste
• 40 grams of butter
• two tablespoons of breadcrumbs
• chicken egg - one piece
• condiments - if desired

For garnish:

• kilogram of sweet beets
• salt
• olive oil

Cooking method: A duck with apples can be made with both sweet and sour fruit. But we recommend using several varieties, then the taste of the dish will turn out to be more interesting and rich. I would like to note one more thing: do not necessarily add breadcrumbs bought in the store. You can make them yourself: cut thin rye bread strips, then dry it in the oven and grind it with a rolling pin. Let's return directly to the preparation of the duck. So, wash it, then dry it and grate inside and outside with salt and favorite seasonings, such as oregano, rosemary or dried basil. To give flavor to the dish, you can treat the bird with freshly ground garlic. Now cut the small pieces of apples, from which previously remove the core and seeds. Stuff the bird with fruit and sew a hole. Then melt the butter in the sauté pan and fry the carcass under the closed lid, periodically turning it from one side to the other. If necessary, add a little water so that the dish does not burn. When the bird is browned, put it on a baking tray, pre-treated with the remaining oil. Now in a separate bowl, whip the egg with salt and use a special brush to grease the duck, then sprinkle it with breadcrumbs. Send the food in the oven, warming it to 200 degrees. After about half an hour you can remove the product. Cut and remove the threads, place the carcass on a large plate, take out the apples and distribute them around the dish. Now it remains to cook the garnish: in order not to repeat and not serve the guests a standard set of mashed potatoes, rice or pasta, we suggest baking beets. First remove the skin from it, then cut into large cubes, sprinkle with olive oil and place on a baking sheet coated with parchment. The vegetable is cooked in the oven for about 20 minutes at an average temperature of 180 degrees. Before serving, pour it with duck fat. If you have caught a dry bird, the juice from which practically does not stand out, make a gravy using the following recipe. Narubite thin strips of homemade lard and brown it in a frying pan, here enter the onions and half and half tablespoons of flour cut into thin half rings. To your taste, add vinegar, salt, and also a little sugar. Stew sauce for no longer than fifteen minutes, regularly mixing the ingredients. Fried duck with sweet and sour apples, baked beets and tender sauce is a great option for a hearty family dinner.

Golden duck with raisins and herbs

To ensure that the products do not darken, sprinkle them with a little lemon juice. As for raisins, pour it over with boiling water and let stand for about ten to fifteen minutes. Of course, it's up to you to decide whether to fry a duck with or without spices, but note that the seasonings give the dish a more intense flavor, an unusual taste, and in some cases a ruddy color. Now you need to rub the bird with salt both outside and inside. With raisins drain off excess liquid, wash it a little, dry with a paper towel and combine in a bowl with apples and sugar. Mix the ingredients and the stuffing stuffed stuffed the bird, sewing the hole with threads or attaching it with wooden skewers. To make the dish more beautiful, we recommend that you first fry it for a short time. To do this, lay the duck in preheated vegetable oil and cook for about 20 minutes, periodically turning over, thus toasting each side. Then send the bird on the baking tray with the backside down, pour in about 100 milliliters of warm water, then the meat will be juicier and not burn. Warm up the oven to 180 degrees, after a while raising the temperature to 200. Note that you need to periodically look into the oven and water the bird with the juice that has emerged from it.
