Delicious Roast Duck!

I've never really been a massive fan of duck - I would eat it, but not usually choose it over something else - and, to be honest, always found there to be far too little meat on far too many bones!! (My favourite duck dish would have been hot duck breast salad with orange dressing ... now, that IS yummy!)

However, this duck "crown" that my husband roasted yesterday was truly delicious, with a tasty gravy freshened with orange, and some gorgeous veg (roasted new potatoes, roasted parsnips, steamed carrots and romanesco cauliflower, brussels sprouts with lardons ... all just beautifully cooked and flavoured!). In fact, it was so nice that we are having a re-run with the leftovers for supper tonight - great!
