Slow Cooker Duck

I have had a frozen duck in the freezer and it seemed it was time to cook it.

Start with placing rolls of aluminium foil in the base of the slow cooker, or a trivet if you have one. It will shed lots of fat.

Add to this some carrots, onion and celery. Don't worry about neatness you won't be eating them

Now cut the duck into pieces, much easier now than when it is hot.

Place the duck pieces on the foil and vegetables.

Cover with the juice of one lemon.

Season with dried basil, chilli power, salt and pepper.

Cook on low for 6 hours or until cooked.

Meanwhile bake some potatos and for the last 20 minutes brown the duck pieces.

Serve with gravy.
