A tad extravagant for a Saturday lunch? Perhaps…
I’ll be honest: duck doesn’t really do it for me. It was the veggies – mushrooms, onions and basil – that I really wolfed down. And the sauce! Oh, the sauce. After a couple of wildly unsuccessful guesses, T shared with me exactly what went into it:
- Water
- Tomato paste
- Oregano
- A dash of oyster sauce (yes, really)
How about you – are you a duck fan?
My wife isn’t too keen on duck but I quite like it from time to time. If prepared correctly it is exquisite, not to mention the reputation one obtains from being able to make a delicious duck dish. I hear it’s really tasty when made into a dried duck jerky. But let’s be honest, who’s ever met someone who preferred duck over chicken?
I’ve only had duck once or twice so I can’t really say. This looks delicious though!
Duck is okay, but I’m not terribly crazy for it; I find it to be a bit fatty for my liking. Usually I have it in the form of Peking duck, so it’s been a while! That sauce sounds amazing though!
I love duck but don’t eat it too often – that looks amazing!!
Why isn’t your boyfriend a chef? He is an amazing cook.
Some things make for better hobbies than jobs 🙂
I LOVE duck! The first time I had it was only about 10 years ago. We never ate it growing up, but one evening I was at a restaurant that had it on the menu and I thought I’d just try it. Yes, it is more fatty than chicken, but chicken is so bland and easily dried out that I don’t much eat it when at a restaurant. I love duck confit more than duck breast, but both are yummy. 🙂
I love duck, and that picture looks super tasty.
I normally only eat it when I go out to restaurants as it is too expensive otherwise.
Wow that looks AMAZING!!!
I love anything with mushrooms and tomato sauce!
That dish looks amazing. T really can cook.
I’ve only had duck once. My wife’s parents are immigrants and in their country they eat duck on New Year’s for luck. The soup was good, however, I was allergic to some of the seasonings and ended up sick for the rest of the night.
I’ve only had duck once and thought it was greasy. That looks really good, though. I bet the sauce is excellent.
Now I’m hungry. 🙁
