INSTRUCTIONS

Blend the orange juice with the cornflour.  In a small saucepan, soften
the shallots in the oil. Add the sugar and  vinegar and cook until the
mixture caramelizes. Carefully add the  sherry and reduce by half. Stir
in the orange juice and zest. Simmer  gently until the sauce thickens.
Heat a frying pan until hot then add the duck breasts skin side down.
Cook for 5 minutes or until the skin browns.  Place skin side up in a
small roasting tin and season with the salt,  pepper, allspice and
cinnamon. Cook in a preheated oven at 220Â°C,  425Â°F, gas mark 7 for
10-20 minutes, depending on how well done you  like duck. Set aside and
keep warm.  Skim the fat from the duck juices and add the juices to the
orange  sauce with the scooped out flesh of the passion fruits and the
parsley.  Adjust seasoning.  To serve, slice the duck and pour the
sauce over the top.  Converted by MC_Buster.  NOTES : Orange and
passion fruit makes a wonderful accompaniment to  these moist farmhouse
duckling breasts.  Converted by MM_Buster v2.0l.
