WINING & DINING RECIPE S TO TRY AT HOME
VA L ENT INE R ECI P E S ROMANTIC DINNER FOR TWO
With current national lockdown restrictions, a romantic dinner at your favourite restaurant is not possible for this year’s Valentine’s night. Many restaurants and pubs are offering takeaway options but if your eatery of choice isn’t, one of you needs to step up to the plate to deliver a romantic dinner for two that really says ‘I love you’. We have teamed up with Gressingham and Munchy Seeds to bring you an easy to prepare two course dinner that will definitely win your loved one over. Delicious.
DUCK S T E AK AND F R I E S
Steak and chips done the Gressingham way. Best enjoyed with creamy homemade mayonnaise and dressed watercress.
Serves: 2 Prepare: 5 minutes Cook: 20 minutes
2 Gressingham duck breasts 200g chips or fries
1. Preheat the oven to 200°c or 180°c fan. Dry the duck breasts well with kitchen roll. Score the skin on each duck breast six to eight times and season well on both sides. Place the duck into a cold frying pan with no oil, skin side down on a low to medium heat.
2. Cook the duck breasts for about 6 to 8 minutes until the skin is golden and crisp, carefully pouring off any excess fat into a bowl as the duck cooks. Turn the breast over and seal the meat for 30 seconds, then transfer the breasts to a baking tray and place in the preheated oven for 6 to 8 minutes, or longer if you prefer duck well cooked.
3. When the duck is cooked to your liking, remove it from the oven and leave in a warm place to rest for 5 to 10 minutes. While the duck is resting, put your fries or chips on to cook, according to the instructions or your preferred method.
4. When you are ready to eat, carve the duck into thick slices and serve with the fries or chips.
