  1. Becca REVIEW:

    Excellent recipe!! I found the instructions quite easy to follow.

  2. tootsie REVIEW:

    Only giving this a three stars because while it has potential to be excellent, the directions kinda ruin it. First, it doesn't explain how to make a roux. Some people are going to need that info. Second, you don't brown food in a roux. A roux is meant to thicken. I would brown the duck in oil then remove from pan. Cook the onions in oil until soft and remove with slotted spoon. Make sure there is 2 tb of oil left in the pan, if not, add more. Then add the flour and stir over low heat until you get a lovely slightly browned roux. Stir the veggies back in and add a little water to thin the roux. Add the duck back in and add more water as needed to get to the proper level. Follow the rest of the recipe. That should yield a much nicer texture to the duck and the sauce.
