duck, its weight is two and a half kilograms, I I washed it well and cut this iron into pieces, besides I took out the lungs and cleaned the duck inside, I will prepare the marinade, rub grate the orange zest, remove only the top orange part I put the zest in a bowl, squeeze the juice from half an orange because I have it very juicy, squeeze out 4 cloves of garlic and add honey then add spices,

pepper since it is fragrant, now I rub the duck with the marinade inside and then outside the duck is prepared, it remains to fill it, I cut the apples into not very large pieces of apples are better to use dense varieties with pronounced sourness now alva I really like its aroma and taste, so I I always try to add it to the duck, I cut it into smaller pieces since its pulp is much denser, I cut off the peel from the orange and cut it into pieces I mix all the fruits and fill them with a duck, do not tamp too tightly since there should be at least a little space left for the circulation of hot air inside now I pierce this hole with toothpicks you can also sew with threads if it's more convenient for you I also prick the top with a toothpick, I will bake the duck in a sleeve, I really like this way I cut off the sleeve I tie it on one side I turn it a little those fruits that did not fit into the duck I put in the sleeve and put the duck on top I tie the second edge and leave the duck in this form for the night to marinate so it is well saturated with spices and salted, but if you do not have time, then hold it for at least three hours and then bake it on my channel there is a recipe baked turkey thigh is also a great option for a festive table you can watch the video by clicking on the link in the upper right corner and also by following the link in the description under this video my duck is marinated I put it in the oven preheated to 170 degrees for about two and a half hours and while it is baking, I will prepare a very tasty sauce for it I will clean and rub a small apple on a grater, I will add it to the sauce and besides taste, it will add thickness and texture to the sauce, pour a little water into the saucepan and add sugar, bring the syrup to a boil and let it boil a little then pour in the cranberries, stir so that all the cranberries are covered with a thick syrup and add grated apple, add a little orange zest and squeeze the juice and from half an orange, I will boil a little, I want to make a sauce with a slight sharpness, so I will add a little chili pepper, this is optional and do not add during the cooking process, be sure to try the sauce and adjust the taste, I do not have enough acid now, since the orange I had very sweet, so I add a little lemon juice and one more the ingredient is rum, literally one spoon, the sauce is boiled, I break it through with a hand blender, while I do not achieve a completely homogeneous texture it's okay if there are small pieces of cranberries or apple left, the sauce is ready it took me 10 minutes to prepare it, two and a half hours passed, I I pierce the duck right through the sleeve, it is already quite easy to pierce it is almost ready, so I cut the sleeve and open the duck if you have the duck is still hard or when pierced, pink juice is released, then it is not yet ready, add time, pour it abundantly with the juice that was released during baking I also pour it inside and next to the duck on the baking sheet I put sliced ​​apples and ajva, but this is already for serving I bake for about half an hour, but adjust this process yourself depending on your oven so that the duck does not burn during this time, you can pour a few more times and the juice that was released and in some ovens it turns out that not always the bottom of the duck is fried, then you can just turn it over and give it browned on the other side, everything is ready, I take the duck out of the oven, I give it a rest for about half an hour and put it on a serving dish, decorate it with oranges as well as baked apples and ajva, the duck turns out to be very fragrant tender and juicy, and in combination with the sauce, it's just a feast, be sure to try for cooking today I needed a duck
