ROAST DUCK WITH CHERRY SAUCE
After 40 years of recipe writing about other more elegant ways of serving duck I have now returned to this, the original recipe. If you think halfway to Chinese this is what it's like, moist flesh, lots of lovely very crispy bits and I still can't believe it's so simple.

Steps:
- Prepare the duck by wiping it as dry as possible with kitchen paper. Then, using a small skewer, prick the fatty bits of the skin, particularly between the legs and the breast. Now either place it on the roasting rack in the tin or make a rack yourself by crumpling the kitchen foil and placing it in the bottom of the roasting tin. Season with salt flakes and freshly milled black pepper, using quite a lot of salt, as this encourages crunchiness. Now place the tin on a highish shelf of the pre-heated oven. After 20 minutes turn the heat down to gas mark 4. 180ºC / 350ºF, then basically that's all you have to do is leave it alone for 2½ hours (or 30 minutes longer for a 2.7 kg bird). During the cooking time, using an oven glove to protect your hands, remove the tin from the oven and drain the fat from the corner of the tin - do this about 3 times (the fat is brilliant for roast potatoes, so don't throw it away). To make the sauce simply combine the jam and wine and bring it up to a simmer then simmer for about 10 minutes to thicken it slightly. When the cooking time is up the duck skin should sound crisp when it is tapped with a knife, if it's not pop it back in the oven for a bit longer, then when it's cooked allow the duck to rest for 5 minutes or so, then divide it into portions: all you need to do is cut the bird in half lengthways (i.e. along the length of the breast then either side of the backbone) with a sharp knife, then cut the halves into quarters leaving any escaped pieces of bone behind. (You may need some help with some kitchen scissors here.) Serve with the sauce poured around so as not to lose the crispness of the skin and garnish with watercress.
CHERRY SAUCE
Steps:
- Place the cherries and the syrup or water in a small saucepan along with the sugar, butter and lemon juice. Bring to a boil. If using fresh or frozen cherries, reduce the heat and simmer for another 3 minutes. Stir in the cornstarch mixture, stirring continually until the sauce is thickened, about 1 minute. Remove from heat and stir in the almond extract.
- Cover and store in the fridge where it will keep for up to a week.
- Serve warm or at room temperature.

MORELLO CHERRY SAUCE
Found this recipe from the cook and the chef. This sauce is great served over vanilla or a rich chocolate ice cream. I think this would go well over pancakes also. I have added brandy to the original recipe, so you can leave brandy out if prefered.

Steps:
- Dissolve sugar in the water over a low heat, add the cherries, cinnamon and lemon zest and bring to the boil, reduce heat, and simmer until very syrupy (rhis will take about about 20 minutes).
- Remove cherry mix from the heat when syrupy and thick enough.
- Add lemon juice and brandy.
- Allow mix to cool, and keep until ready to serve.
- Serve over your favourite icecream.
CHERRY CRANBERRY SAUCE
My mother-in-law makes this super-easy sauce every Thanksgiving. Cherries give tart cranberries a slightly sweet flavor. I serve it alongside turkey, pork and ham.

- In a medium saucepan (off the heat), add water (use 1/3 cup for fresh cherries and 1/4 cup water for frozen cherries). Whisk in 1 Tbsp cornstarch, 1 Tbsp lemon juice, and 2 Tbsp sugar.
- Add cherries and cook stirring occasionally until sauce is at a light boil (about 6-10 minutes for fresh cherries and 12-15 minutes for frozen). The sauce should be thickened and uniformly bubbling, not just at the edges, then remove from heat.
- Cool to room temperature then cover and store in the refrigerator in a glass mason jar or Tupperware container until ready to use. It will thicken more as it stands.
