Sesame Duck Leg Appetizer

Duck legs take a lot of cooking time to render tender. Save up your duck legs in a separate bag and make this recipe when you have a bunch of folks coming over for a duck dinner.

Courses: Starters and appetizers
Serves: 6 people

Recipe Ingredients

25   Duck legs - (to 30)
2 tablespoons 30mlMinced fresh ginger
6   Garlic cloves - (to 8) - minced
1/2 cup 80g / 2.8ozBrown sugar
1 1/2 cups 355mlPineapple juice
3/4 cup 177mlRice vinegar
1 cup 237mlSoy sauce
1 tablespoon 15mlSesame oil
3 tablespoons 45mlSesame seeds
  Pan spray - as needed

Recipe Instructions

Coat a large baking dish evenly with pay spray. Add duck legs and place in a preheated 400 degree oven, covered with foil or lid, for 1 hour. Remove pan from oven and pour off any liquid in pan.

Combine remaining ingredients and pour over legs, just enough to barely cover them. Reserve any extra liquid. Cover and place back in the oven for 1 1/2 hours, checking occasionally to make sure that the liquid does not cook out of the pan completely. Add additional liquid, if necessary.

After 1 1/2 hours, check the legs every 20 minutes until the meat pulls off the bone with moderate pressure, but don't wait until the meat falls off the bone. Allow to cool slightly before serving.

This recipe yields 6 to 8 servings.
