Ingredients

  • 4 duck breast fillets (about 180 g each)
  • 1 knollensellerie (celery root)
  • 1 celery stalk
  • 50 ml Vegetable broth
  • 50 ml port wine
  • 1 small glass orange marmalade
  • 3 tsp sesame oil
  • 100 g butter
  • Salt
  • Pepper

Instructions

  1. 1.

    Remove tendons from the duck breast and lightly score the skin in a cross pattern; season both sides with salt and pepper, then sear the skin side crisp in hot oil over medium heat. Flip the breast and briefly sear the meat side.

  2. 2.

    Place the duck breasts on a rack and finish cooking at 80 °C convection (about 25 minutes). Peel and cut the celery into cubes or sticks; set aside some for garnish. Sauté in butter, pour in vegetable broth, steam until tender. Season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg, bind the juices with a bit of butter, then puree.

  3. 3.

    Briefly brown the duck breasts again in butter, slice them open. Warm the orange confiture in the pan, thin it with a splash of wine. Plate the duck breast with purée and confiture on four dishes, garnish with fresh celery, and serve.
