Cooking Steps

Make the gratin
1
  • Preheat the oven to 200°C. Crush or mince the garlic.
  • Prepare the stock directly in an oven dish.
  • Add the garlic, the cream, the thyme and the potatoes. Season generously with salt and pepper, then mix carefully, ensuring the potatoes are completely submerged. Top with the cheese.
  • Bake in the oven for 30 - 40 minutes until golden-brown and done.
Fry the endive
2
  • Quarter the endive lengthways, keeping the core intact so as to keep the leaves together.
  • Melt a knob of butter in a deep frying pan over high heat and fry the endive for 1 minute.
  • Season with salt and pepper, then allow to stew for 10 - 15 minutes over medium heat, covered.
  • Carefully add the honey and allow to caramelise for 2 minutes over high heat.
Fry the duck
3
  • Pat the duck dry with kitchen paper.
  • Use a sharp knife to score the surface of the duck in a crisscross pattern, being sure not to cut too deep. Season generously with salt and pepper.
  • Place the duck skin-side down in a clean frying pan and set the heat to medium.
  • Fry for 7 - 9 minutes and allow the fat to render, until the skin is crisp and deeply golden-brown.
Fry the orange
4
  • Flip the duck and fry for 2 - 4 more minutes, so as to cook it medium-rare. Transfer to a plate and allow to rest under aluminum foil.
  • Peel and slice half of the orange.
  • Fry the sliced orange in the same pan for 1 - 2 minutes per side over medium-high heat.
  • Juice the rest of the orange in the meantime.
Make the jus
5
  • Deglaze the pan with the red wine jus and the balsamic vinegar.
  • In a small bowl, combine the cornstarch with the water for the sauce, then transfer to the jus.
  • Add the orange juice and any juices that have collected from the duck, then simmer for 3 - 4 minutes until thickened and reduced. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Finely chop the parsley.
Serve
6
  • Chop the pistachios and slice the duck against the grain.
  • Serve the endive on plates with the duck and the sliced orange alongside. Top the duck with the red wine jus.
  • Garnish the endive with the pistachios.
  • Garnish the potato gratin with the parsley and serve alongside.
