Oh. Oh.
Thats was sooo nice.
DH couldn't speak he was so in love with his food.
And I did them with sauteed new potatoes on a bed of wild rocket (as I prefer that to watercress) and he ate the big handful I put on his plate. Didn't put vinagreitte on, I just sliced the duck (as one was about twice the size of the other) , lay it on top and spooned the sauce over.

It was so good. We are plotting when we can have it again!

Thanks abraid!

I've tried, I have got him eating tomato, apples, strawberries and spinach after 14 years of us being together. (Never mind about the carrots, courgettes and peppers I hide in his food along with the DD@s...)
but after 18 years of his mother's veg destroying cooking habits I can't blame him reallywink

I was given a Saturday Kitchen recipe book and there's a lovely recipe in there for duck with redcurrant and wine sauce that I've done a few times. Can let you know recipe if you think dh might like it.

Nice abra1d, have read that to DH and he is drooling.
Normally I would stir fry or do with a plum sauce but fancied somethign different as girls will be sleeping after party food!
