Day 11 - Share your favorite recipe

I'm not much of a cook, though I really do enjoy cooking. My favorite style, however, doesn't follow a recipe--instead, I just try to experiment with different flavors and see what happens. Usually, the result is god-awful. Here's a simple one that I enjoy, though:

Roast Duck and Potatoes

Ingredients

  • 1 duck
  • Some potatoes. 4 is probably okay.
  • Salt, pepper
  • Rosemary, any other spices you want. Cumin sounds nice, I don't know. Curry powder might work as well.

Recipe

  1. Clean and wash the duck. Rub salt and pepper into the skin.
  2. Place duck on a rack above a baking pan
  3. Roast duck in the oven until done. I think around 300° Farenheit for...an hour per pound, maybe? I really don't know. Maybe it's just an hour all around. Oh well, google it. Or find the instructions on the wrapping the duck comes in.
  4. After putting the duck in, cut the potatoes into cubes (eights or smaller) and cover with salt, pepper, and rosemary/whatever other spice.
  5. Allow them to roast. Again, I don't know how long. The normal amount.
  6. Once it's all done, enjoy!

I like duck a lot. This recipe's gone quite badly in the past, so be careful about how you cook it.
