1 packet
duck breast
1 packet
Plum Sauce
(Contains Soy; )
1 bag
green beans
½
lemon
1 bag
Shredded Cabbage Mix
1 tbs
brown sugar
(May be present Gluten, Milk, Peanut, Sesame, Soy, Almond, Cashew, Pistachio, Walnut. )
olive oil
1 drizzle

• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. • Cut potato into bite-sized chunks, then place on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat. • Roast until tender, 20-25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat a large frying pan over medium heat (no need for oil). Season duck breast on both sides and place, skin-side down, in the hot pan. Cook until skin is crisp, 12 minutes. • Increase heat to high and turn to sear flesh on all sides until browned, 1 minute. • Transfer duck to a second lined oven tray and roast until cooked through, 10-12 minutes. • When duck is cooked, transfer to a plate and pour over plum sauce. Rest for 5 minutes.
• While the duck is roasting, trim green beans. Slice lemon into wedges.
• Wipe out the frying pan, then return to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook green beans until tender, 4-5 minutes. • Remove pan from heat, then add a squeeze of lemon juice and a pinch of salt and pepper. • Transfer to a bowl, cover to keep warm and set aside.
• When potatoes have 10 minutes remaining, return the frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Sauté shredded cabbage mix until tender, 4-5 minutes. • Add the brown sugar, a drizzle of white wine vinegar and a splash water and cook until softened, 3-4 minutes. Season to taste.
• Slice plum-glazed roast duck. • Divide duck and plum glaze between plates. • Serve with golden potatoes, sautéed cabbage, lemony green beans and any remaining lemon wedges. Enjoy!
