  1. Preheat oven to 190°C.
     
  2. In a small saucepan bring the caster sugar, stock, lemon juice, rice vinegar and garlic to a boil and then reduce to a simmer for 10mins.
     
  3. In a small bowl combine the corn starch with 2 Tbsp cold water before whisking into the lemon mixture on the stove.  Allow to simmer for another 5mins while the sauce thickens.

Turn and cook for a further 2 mins. Transfer duck breasts to preheated oven for a further 8-10 mins. Rest uncovered for 5 mins before slicing.

    I made this for my husband as he absolutely loves duck. He raved and raved about the sauce and the duck, after I had made this for him. My only suggestion to others, is to add cornflour paste gradually as it didn’t need all - was very thick and I had to thin out with more water

    Love this recipe, duck perfectly cooked, lemon sauce zesty and refreshing. In the absence of corn flour I used one sheet of gelatine.
