Serve a small piece of duck cut from the bone with a spoonful of the braised cabbage on the child's plate.

Recipe

1

Preheat the oven to 200°C. Pat the duck legs dry and score the skin in a diamond pattern. Season with salt.

2

Place the duck legs skin-side down in a cold ovenproof skillet and set over medium heat for 8 minutes to render the fat and crisp the skin.

3

Flip the legs skin-side up, transfer the skillet to the oven, and roast for 30 minutes until the skin is crisp and the meat is tender.
