We serve this at 41 Portland Place with our delicious duck confit canapé:
- Wrap duck legs in cling film and cook in the oven at 120c for four hours.
- After four hours remove from the oven, remove the cling film and the meat falls off the bones.
- Then season the meat with salt, pepper and orange zest.
- While the meat is warm wrap it in cling film into a cylindrical shape.
- Chill the duck in the fridge.
- Once cold, slice the duck confit and place on top of toasted brioche with a small amount of kumquat jam and serve.
