    Then brush the duck carcass with honey and mustard sauce. Place the duck in the refrigerator for several hours (from 1 to 8 hours) to soak in the sauce. After the time has passed, place 3-4 apples inside (I prefer sour “Antonovka”), cinnamon (ground), bay leaf and nutmeg.

    STEP 5

    To prevent the duck from burning on top, cover it with foil. You can completely wrap the carcass in foil, then the duck will bake inside itself, there is no need to water it. After the time has passed, reduce the oven heat to 160 degrees, put the remaining apples in the pan, pour in duck fat, and bake for another 20 minutes. The duck with apples is ready, Bon appetit!

Great! I am also a fan of this dish. So that the duck fat does not go to waste, I also cover the duck with boiled, salted rice. It is also baked and infused with duck flavor. Yummy!!!
