Steps:
- Using a sharp knife, score the duck skin (fat) with diagonal parallel slashes 1/2 inch apart to make a diamond pattern, being careful not to pierce through to the flesh.
- Pour the balsamic vinegar into a shallow dish just wide enough to fit the breasts in one layer.
- Add the duck, flesh (not fat) side down; cover and leave to marinate for 20 minutes at room temperature (can be marinated up to 2 hours refrigerated but remove for last twenty minutes at room temperature).
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add duck, fat side down and cook until crispy, about 5 minutes (covered to avoid spattering).
- After the 5 minutes, carefully pour the rendered fat from the pan and wipe the outside of the pan of any grease that may have dripped there before placing back on the stove.
- Turn the duck breasts over and continue to cook: about 5 minutes more for rare, 8 for medium rare, and 10 minutes for well done, but of course depending on the size of the duck breasts.
- Remove duck from pan to cutting board and slice thinly against the grain.
- Serve immediately, passing extra balsamic vinegar for drizzling if desired.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
- Sprinkle Chinese five-spice powder inside the duck cavity. Add chopped onion and cubed orange.
- Combine cranberries, orange liqueur, honey, white sugar, and soy sauce in a saucepan. Cook and stir until glaze reaches a jam-like consistency, 7 to 10 minutes. Allow to cool slightly, about 3 minutes.
- Place duck on a roasting rack inside a roasting pan; baste with the glaze.
- Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 2 1/2 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone, should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Steps:
- Rinse the cranberries carefully under running water and pick them over to remove any that have spoiled.
- Mix one cup of cranberries, the honey and one-half cup of water in a small saucepan and cook, simmering, until the cranberries are very soft. Strain through a sieve into a small bowl. The honey liquid is the glaze for the duck.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Remove the gizzard, heart and liver from the duck and set aside. Put the orange peel, half the onion and about half a teaspoon of salt and pepper in the cavity. Paint the duck with a little of the cranberry glaze.
- Place the duck on a rack in a roasting pan and roast for 45 minutes. Every 15 minutes, paint the surface with a little of the cranberry glaze. Remove the duck from the oven and prick the skin all over with a fork to release the fat. Return to the oven and continue roasting, painting every 15 minutes with the glaze, for a total of two hours.
- While the duck is roasting, make a broth with the innards: Roughly chop the remaining half onion and the duck innards. Place in a small saucepan with the wine, another half teaspoon of salt and pepper and a cup of water. Simmer gently for an hour or more, until the broth is reduced to approximately one-half cup of flavorful liquid. Strain the broth and discard the solids.
- Mix the remaining half cup of cranberries with the remaining half cup of water, the sugar and the balsamic vinegar. Cook together for 10 minutes until the mixture is syrupy. Set aside.
- When the duck has finished roasting, remove it from the oven and set aside. It should be a beautiful dark-red color.
- Strain the pan juices into a glass measuring cup and carefully remove the duck fat that floats to the top. (Do not discard: duck fat is wonderful for roasting or frying potatoes.) Add the innard broth to the roasting juices and use this to deglaze the roasting pan, scraping up the roasting bits that have stuck to the pan. Strain the whole through a fine sieve and place in a small saucepan.
- Add the cranberry-vinegar syrup to the pan juices and broth. If there is any glaze remaining, add that to the mixture and bring the whole to a simmer just to warm it and mix everything together.
- Carve the duck if you wish, or send it whole to the table, together with the warm cranberry sauce.

Steps:
- The day before, soak 4 wooden skewers in water for 20 mins. Wash the ducks inside and out with cold water, drain and pat dry with kitchen paper. Mix together the sugar, star anise, ginger, spring onions and a few good pinches of salt, then use this to fill the cavities. Close the cavities with wooden skewers and set aside.
- In a small bowl, mix the maltose and 2 tbsp of the vinegar. Add the remaining vinegar to a jug of boiling water and pour over the ducks. (The boiling water opens up the pores, while the vinegar helps to strip some of the waxiness from the skin, so it will be more receptive to the maltose, which adds sweetness and a lacquered caramel colour.) Smear the maltose mixture over the ducks, then place them in a large plastic container and put in the fridge overnight, uncovered.
- To cook, heat oven to 220C/200C fan/ gas 7. (Fan ovens are particularly effective for roasting duck.) Put a little water in the bottom of a large roasting tin, place the ducks on a rack over the top and cover with foil. Roast for about 45 mins. Take off the foil and roast for another 45 mins - the duck must be well done, there is no such thing as a rare Chinese roast duck! Take the duck out of the oven and let it rest for a good 20 mins before carving.

REALLY CRISPY DUCK BREAST WITH CHINESE-STYLE CRANBERRY SAUCE RECIPE - (4.5/5)

Steps:
- 1. The sauce can be prepared while the duck is cooking, or made well in advance and warmed just before serving. Heat the sesame oil in a small saucepan and cook the onion until softened. Add the ginger and red wine vinegar. Bring to the boil and cook until the vinegar has almost cooked away. Stir in the cranberry sauce, ½ tsp Chinese five spice, the red wine, orange zest, orange juice and sugar. Bring to the boil and cook for 6-8 minutes until thickened slightly. Season with salt and remove the orange zest before serving. 2. Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6. 3. Score the skin of the duck breasts several times with a sharp knife. Sprinkle over the remaining Chinese five spice, salt and pepper, then rub into the skin and score lines. 4. Heat a drop of vegetable oil in an ovenproof frying pan or roasting tray over a low-medium heat. Sit the duck skin-side down in the pan or tray and slowly fry for 10-12 minutes. Be patient at this stage as it will give you a really crispy skin as a result. Drain away all the excess fat. Turn the breasts over so they are skin-side up, and cook in the oven for 6-8 minutes (you may need a couple of minutes longer if the breasts are very thick). 5. Remove from the oven and leave to relax for about 5 minutes. This will ensure the duck breasts are tender while still keeping the skin crispy. The duck is now ready to serve on warm plates with a spoonful of sauce and accompaniment of your choice. Try some stir-fried spinach or pak choi with sesame oil, and noodles or mashed potatoes flavoured with thinly sliced spring onions.
