Duck ragu

HERE'S HOW WE MAKE IT

Our version of this Italian classic is based on a Neil Perry recipe and uses whole free-range duck marylands which we braise gently with soffritto vegetables, red wine, tomatoes and homemade chicken stock, until it's so tender that it's falling off the bone. After shredding the meat and discarding the bones we fold it back into the sweet, thick sauce.

INGREDIENTS

Free-range duck, red wine, carrot, onion, celery, thyme, bay leaves, garlic, tomato paste, crushed tomatoes, red wine vinegar, olive oil, salt, chicken stock (free-range chicken bones, carrots, onion, celery, garlic, peppercorns, parsley).
