Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/4 lb red cabbage (1/2 head), cored and cut into 2-inch chunks
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 (16-oz) jar pickled beets
3 tablespoons cider vinegar
1 (6-oz) confit duck leg*
1 medium onion, cut into 1/4-inch dice
2 russet (baking) potatoes (about 1 lb total)
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup fine dry bread crumbs
1/2 cup vegetable oil for frying
Garnish: chopped fresh chives

Steps:

  • Make slaw:
  • Pulse cabbage, in batches if necessary, in a food processor until finely chopped, then transfer to a bowl and add 3/4 teaspoon salt and liquid from pickled beets. Finely chop beets (with a knife) and stir into cabbage mixture along with vinegar. Let stand, stirring occasionally, 30 minutes to allow flavors to develop.
  • Make pancakes while slaw stands:
  • Remove skin and fat from duck leg and finely chop them (reserve meat), then cook in a 10-inch heavy skillet over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until fat is rendered and skin is golden and crisp, about 10 minutes. Transfer duck skin with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain, reserving fat in skillet. Meanwhile, remove duck meat from bone, discarding bone, and cut into 1/4-inch dice. Add onion to skillet and cook over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until browned, 7 to 9 minutes. Combine onion, duck meat, and reserved skin in a large bowl.
  • Peel potatoes and shred using large holes of a box grater. Squeeze potatoes by handfuls to eliminate excess moisture, then add to duck mixture along with egg, pepper, and remaining 3/4 teaspoon salt, stirring until combined.
  • Spread 1/2 cup bread crumbs on a sheet of wax paper. Using a scant 1/4 cup potato mixture for each pancake, make 12 mounds on crumbs. Coat mounds with remaining 1/2 cup crumbs and flatten into 3-inch patties.
  • Heat oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderate heat until hot but not smoking. Using a slotted spatula, gently shake off excess crumbs from each potato pancake, then fry in 2 batches, turning over once, until golden, about 6 minutes per batch. Transfer to paper towels to drain. Serve immediately, with slaw.
