somewhere - can't remember if in here or PF, I posted that I would be treating my unsuspecting neighbour to coq au vin - not true, mind not in gear - actually, duck a l'orange. Interested in how others prepare the dish - my method is to cut duck breast into pieces about twice bite size, because I am always worried about under cooking fowl, and I find duck - and goose - hard to judge. The pieces then get marinated for a few hours in red wine and herbs - thyme and herbes de Provence. My sauce is marmalade, orange juice and - usually Cointreau, but I found that I was out of Cointreau, so cognac will have to substitute. The pieces will be fried with sherry - undecided whether to add mushrooms, because I only have tinned, so may skip them.
Any alternatives? I am committed to 'my' recipe for tonight, but I would be interested in what others think

For such meals my main preparation is ensuring there are sufficient funds in the card account to take the strain when I pay the restaurant.

That arrived after this thread though. There were 3 cooking threads in Other under Hobbies so I renamed it Cooking and added a new Other board. [1180]
