DUCK BREAST WITH LEEK AND CRANBERRY
French inspired Seared Duck Breast with Leeks, Cranberries and a wonderful Red Wine sauce. Fabulous served with wasabi mashed potatoes for a warm aromatic contrast. My version of a recipe from a duck supplier. Be sure to use a slightly more complex red wine such as Shiraz or Cabernet Sauvignon.
