Strategy
Stage 1
Heat stove to 160C/140C fan/gas 3. Put the duck on a rack set over a broiling tin and prick the skin done with a stick. Season well. Split one of the oranges and fit a portion of the juice into the duck depression and the tin, then, at that point, stuff the cavity with both of the parts. Empty 100ml water into the tin and dish for 20 mins for each 500g (around 50 mins). Turn the broiler up to 220C/200C fan/gas 7 and meal for one more 20 mins until the duck skin is fresh and brilliant.
Stage 2
Put a little dish of water on to bubble. Utilizing a peeler, pare the zing from the leftover orange. Scratch any substance off the zing utilizing a little, sharp blade. Add the zing to the water and tenderly bubble for 8-10 mins, then channel, cut daintily into strips and put away. In a similar skillet, break down the earthy colored sugar with the balsamic vinegar. Slice the pared orange down the middle, juice it and empty the juice into the dish. Add the Fabulous Marnier and 1 tsp margarine. Bubble until it has decreased significantly and is dull and sweet. Eliminate from the intensity and mix in the orange zing.
Stage 3
When the duck is cooked, enclose it by foil to keep warm and settle it on a board. Spoon off the fat from the broiling tin and dispose of. Empty any leftover duck juices into a wide, shallow pan. Tip in the stock and bring to the bubble. Add the wine and stew for 2-3 mins, then, at that point, add around 50% of the orange sauce and mix well. In a little bowl, blend the cornflour in with 2 tsp cold water, then, at that point, mix into the sauce. Season, add 1 tsp margarine and whisk together. Fill a warm sauce container.
Stage 4
To serve, brush the leftover tacky orange coating over the duck, then, at that point, put the duck on a board and trimming with the watercress. Heat a skillet over a medium intensity and add 1 tsp margarine. When the margarine has liquefied, tip in the spinach and cook for 1-2 mins until it has withered. Season and tip into a warm serving dish.
