Duck with apples and potatoes

Cookinero 1 May 2025

Duck with apples and potatoes is a festive dish. It will take quite a long time to cook, but in the end you will get a juicy, aromatic bird with a ready-made side dish - baked potatoes. You can bake the duck in a sleeve or in foil. In addition to apples and potatoes, the recipe also uses oranges - they give the dish a sour taste, walnuts - piquancy, and garlic - pungency. The bird will be soft if you choose a young duck - with a golden hue of skin and light plumage.
