Duck with Mango
"Fruit always works well with duck.This is an elegant dish and I like to serve it with new potatoes and a selection of vegetables. Note that there can be a big dfference in the size of duck breasts, you might only need two or three to serve 4 people."

directions
- Make cuts in the duck breast skin and rub with salt and pepper.
- In a preheated heavy frying pan, fry the breasts on a fairly hot heat, skin side down for about 5/6 minutes until the skin has turned golden brown.
- Turn over, lower the heat and cook for several minutes more until tender and to your own liking.
- Remove the duck from the pan, cover and keep warm.
- Skim off the duck fat from the juices in the pan, there will most likely be a lot of fat.
- Add the stock to the pan, stir to deglaze, then add the butter, chutney, orange juice and the brandy.
- Stir well, mix the potato flour with some water and add to the pan to thicken the sauce.
- Slice the duck diagonally, arrange with the mango slices on warmed plates. Pour over the sauce.

DH and I made this for dinner a couple of nights ago. It was delicious! The mango paired very nicely with the duck and the presentation was gorgeous. This would be a nice dish to serve to company. We followed the directions and ingredients as posted. Thanks for an enjoyable dinner. -
This was just the greatest. My husband and I both love duck and I am always looking for new recipes. This is definitely be a regular in our house. The only thing I did differently was to make more of the sauce to have enough to put over the rice. Thanks for the recipe. -
YUMMY ! BEST EVER! Used the marinade from - Roast Duck #5108 - and I just cant say how good this was! Needs a TEN! -
I finally had the chance to make this last night. This recipe was fantastic. I made it for the B's and they loved it. EJ said, keep this recipe Marie, it's delicious! Mr B thought it was fabulous and so did Mrs B. I followed your directions exactly. I was a little bit unsure as to how long to cook it to keep it rare like they like it, but I did it bang on! Thanks Pets for a great recipe that I will be using again!

this was simply wonderful! we moaned with delight at every bite= and that includes my epicurean teeager!the mango sauce was simply delicious. i used a whole duck, quartered by the butcher, and had him skin the legs, so i could cook this within the hour. i browned it all on the stovetop, then i added it to a preheated 450 oven for 20 minutes more ( i like my duck cooked, i know it's supposed to be rare, lol). we will be making this often, especially the next time we have dinner guests!

Hello, my name is Bonnie and I am a very beautiful cat as you can see if you look at the picture at the top of this page.... What??.. I am supposed to talk about you??? But it says here: About Me!! Well all right then ......
My mom is Dutch and has moved to England in October 2007, after living 15 years in the Netherlands with my English dad. They don’t have any human children and “created” their own family, which means I have to share them with Hannah, she is a 6 years old tortie cat, Abby the dog, she is a 9 year old Beagle, and a one year old black Miniature Pincher named Poppy, I refuse to tell you my age but I am a georgious lilac British Shorthair cat!!
It is obvious she adores pets just by looking at her name she uses on Zaar (many on Zaar call her Pets or Petsie Poo), her name in real life is Annelies and that is a common Dutch name.
My mom always liked to cook, but since she joined Zaar it got out of control, and it doesn’t help that she is disorganized. Printed recipes everywhere in the house, the recipe binders have got bigger and just between you and me, her hips too!!!
I have lived in Holland all of my life until now, but they lived in several different countries/places:- desert and coastal Oman, up North and West in Holland, Vancouver-Canada, Aberdeen- Scotland and in Norway they lived in Bergen and Oslo. We have all moved together to England, as you can see I’ve already learnt the language!
I heard her say to Dad that this is the last time she moved to another country...she's had it with moving from one place to another! ( its her age...she's getting grumpy)
Mom is 55 years old but I always hear her say that the date of her birthday does not mean that much to her, the date of her cancer anniversary is more important, because so far she is a survivor.
Besides cooking she has other interests too, crafts, gardening and soap making.
She likes Zaar and is one of the hosts on the German-Benelux Forum here on RecipeZaar.
She would like to thank everybody who tries and comments on the recipes she has posted on Recipezaar, your feedback is very much appreciated.
