Grilled Duck Legs

Grilled Duck Legs

Recipe passed down by my mother. It will take quite a long time though - almost two hours. But at least the meat wasn't dried out and the skin was really crispy.


Ingredients:

2 duck legs
Salt
Black pepper


Instructions:

1) Clean and dry the duck legs as much as possible, then use a toothpick to poke holes over the skin.

2) Season with salt and black pepper, then leave it outside in room temperature for 20 to 30 minutes.

3) Dry the duck legs again with a kitchen towel, then place it into the oven at 160 degrees Celcius for 90 minutes at 'bake' mode. The oven does not need to be pre-heated.

4) Turn the oven temperature up to 200 degrees Celcius, change the settings to 'grill' and leave it for another 15 minutes. You can use the fan setting but remember to monitor it closely or it may get burned.

2 tsps of sesame oil
1 tsp of light soy sauce
