Duck Breast on a Warm Cabbage Slaw


This is one of my favourite foods. I simply love duck breast. I did this meal for my friend VJ and her family.

Duck Breast

Place skin side down in a cool fry pan turn on medium heat, allow to cook until skin browns, this rends the fat from the breast, Then turn and brown the other side. That's it your done, for best results it should still pink in the centre. The fat is great for roasting potatoes so you may want to keep it in the fridge.

Cabbage Slaw

Dice Some bacon, about a rasher per person, and cook in a non stick pan
Add a diced Spanish onion and cook until soft
Toss in a finely sliced savoy cabbage, remove core before slicing
Add 1/4 cup rice wine vinegar
Juice of one lemon
Half a bunch of chopped chives
1 packet of Bousin cheese (soft goat cheese, Australian and French versions readily available in Supermarkets)
Stir and cook until cabbage softens and cheese melts through.

Serve the duck breast on top of the slaw
