Wedding and event caterers (and great friends of The Wedding Present Company), Doggart & Squash, share their fool-proof recipe for delicious Confit Duck Leg Croquettes. A perfect party nibble or a decadent starter that pairs perfectly with Spiced Plum Chutney.
Makes 10
1 x Confit Duck Leg
1 x Egg
50g x Flour
50g x Panko Breadcrumbs
1: Pre-heat the oven to 180C.
2: Place the confit duck leg into the oven until it is warm through and the duck falls off the leg.
3: Pull all the duck meat off the bone and place into a bowl.
4: While still warm, add a small amount of the duck fat to help the meat bind. Roll into a cylinder type shape.
5: Place into the fridge to cool and harden.
6: Beat the egg in one bowl, place the flour and panko in two other bowls.
7: Coat the duck croquette in the flour, then egg, then panko.
8: Place a good amount of vegetable oil in a pan, wait till it gets hot and then shallow fry the croquettes until they are golden brown round the sides.
9: Place into the oven at 200C to warm through for about 8-10 minutes.
