Crispy Whole Roasted Duck with a delicious Asian glaze is perfect roasted dinner recipe for holidays. Its so easy to make and tastes absolutely delicious.
Defrost the Duck. Thaw it uncovered, overnight in the refrigerator until completely thawed. Cut off all the excess fat and poke small and shallow holes using a sharp knife all over the bird. Rub Kosher Salt all over the bird, inside out. Preheat the oven to 300F
Stuff the Duck with all the stuffing ingredients - Lemon Slices, Apples, Prunes, Garlic, and Shallots. Seal the opening with toothpick or sew the opening using a kitchen thread. To finish off with the preparation of the Duck, tie the legs together using a kitchen twine and fold the wings back under the duck.
Place the Duck in a roasting pan, breast side up. Slide the Duck in the oven. Roast for 1 hour. After 1 hour, flip and poke holes in the bird using a sharp knife. Roast for another hour. Repeat this step once more and roast for another hour. The bird should get roasted for a total of 3 hours.
To make the glaze, Heat a skillet and add all the ingredients. Whisk until combined. As the sauce begins to simmer, allow it to thicken for 5 minutes and then take it off the heat. Keep it aside.
Take the Duck out and poke holes on it using a sharp knife. Now baste the Duck using the glaze. Slide the Duck back in the oven, breast side up and roast for 15 minutes at 400F. After 15 min, remove from the oven, flip, baste again and roast for 5-7 more minutes. After it gets roasted, get it out of the oven and let stand at room temperature for 15 minutes before carving.
Decorate with fresh fruits, greens and herbs. Serve
