Steps:
1. Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan/Gas 7.
2. Sit the duck, breast side up, on a trivet in a roasting tin and dry the skin with kitchen paper – the drier it is the crisper the cooked skin will be. Rub the skin with oil and season with salt.
3. Roast in the oven for about 30 minutes or until golden. Reduce the oven temperature to 160°C/140°C fan/Gas 3 and slow-roast for 2½ hours, basting from time to time. The wings of the duck should be tender, and the legs should come away easily from the body of the bird.
4. Drain the fat from the bottom of the tin, reserving 1 tablespoon for cooking the sauce (see also tip). Increase the oven temperature to 220°C/200°C fan/Gas 7 and return the tin to the oven for 20–30 minutes or until the skin of the duck is golden and crisp. Remove from the oven to rest for 15 minutes before carving.
5. Meanwhile, make the sauce. Heat the reserved duck fat in a medium saucepan and fry the shallots over a medium-high heat for 4–5 minutes until lightly golden but not burnt. Pour in the port, wine and stock, then raise the heat and allow to bubble for 5–10 minutes until reduced by a third.
6. Add the jelly and vinegar, then strain the sauce and discard the shallots. Mix the cornflour with 3 tablespoons of water in a small bowl until smooth. Add a little of the hot sauce to the bowl and then add the mixture to the rest of the sauce in the pan. Add the cherries and carefully bring to the boil, stirring. Season with salt and pepper and boil until the sauce is glossy and thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.
7. Carve the duck – it will be very tender and cooked through, not pink like a duck breast – and serve with the cherry sauce.
Cook time: 3½ hours, plus resting.
Prepare ahead: The sauce can be made up to a day ahead and reheated. The duck can be roasted 8 hours ahead if serving cold.
Mary’s Classic Tips:
* If your duck comes with the giblets, save them to make a flavoursome stock with the duck bones. It freezes well and can be used in place of the chicken stock used here.
* Keep the duck fat – it’s great for flavoursome roast potatoes.

Steps:
To make the sauce, measure the cornflour into a small pan and stir in the miso paste, soy, lime zest and juice until smooth. Add the remaining ingredients and a little salt and black pepper. Bring to the boil, stirring all the time, until thickened and coating the spoon. Set aside.
To cook the duck, arrange the legs in a large saucepan so they fit snugly in a single layer. Cover with the stock and add the ginger and garlic. Bring to the boil, cover, reduce the heat and simmer for about 1½ hours, or until tender. Set aside to cool in the stock.
Preheat the oven 220°C/200°C fan/Gas 7.
Remove the duck legs from the cooking liquid, reserving a small amount for the sauce, and place the legs in a single layer, skin side up, in a roasting tin. Brush a little of the sauce over the top of the duck legs and slide into the oven for about 20–25 minutes, until glazed and brown.
Meanwhile, reheat the remaining sauce in a small pan. Add a little of the reserved stock to thin the sauce, if necessary, then serve alongside the legs with pak choi or edamame beans.
Mary’s tips:
Duck legs can be poached up to a day ahead. Sauce can be made up to 4 days ahead.
Freezes well after first cooking.
