Cooking Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 220 °C.
- Season the duck with salt and place it in a roasting pan.
- Roast the duck for 10 minutes, then turn the heat down to 180 °C and cook it for a further 50 – 55 minutes, basting with the honey every 15 minutes.
- To make the sauce, combine the orange juice and zest, cherries, wine, sugar, ginger, cinnamon and cloves in a medium saucepan.
- Stir the ingredients over a medium heat until the sugar dissolves and the mixture comes to a boil.
- Reduce the heat to low and simmer uncovered for about 20 minutes, stirring frequently, until the cherries burst and the juices thicken slightly.
