Duck Bhuna

Ingredients

  • Duck (1 kg)
  • Turmeric powder (1 teaspoon)
  • Chili powder (1 teaspoon)
  • Cumin powder (1 teaspoon)
  • Coriander powder (1/2 teaspoon)
  • Garam masala powder (1 teaspoon)
  • Cardamom (4)
  • Cinnamon (4 pieces)
  • Cloves (4)
  • Bay leaves (2)
  • Star anise (1, optional)
  • Salt (to taste)
  • Green chilies (4–5)
  • Chopped onion (1 cup)
  • Ginger paste (1 teaspoon)
  • Garlic paste (1 teaspoon)
  • Oil (1/2 cup)
  • Roasted cumin powder (1 teaspoon)

Method

  1. Remove all the feathers from the duck skin very carefully. Cut the duck into pieces and wash well.
  2. Heat oil in a pot and add chopped onion. When the onion softens slightly, add all the spices one by one except green chilies and roasted cumin powder. Watch that the spices do not burn; add a little water if needed. When the masala is fried, add the duck and cook well. When the meat is well fried, add 1 cup of water and cover. When the liquid has mostly reduced and the duck is tender, add a few green chilies. Cover and cook for another 3–4 minutes. Sprinkle roasted cumin powder over the top before serving.
  3. Nothing compares to this duck bhuna served hot with paratha.
