  • Rub the duck with salt, inside and out. For the sauce, add a little butter to the sliced bacon and heat it up. Sauté the chopped root vegetables and onion. Then pour in a splash of water and add the tomatoes and apples, peeled and cut into pieces. Pour in the wine and add the spices. Ladle the sauce into a roasting pan, set the duck in it, cover, and braise in the oven until the bird is tender. Then take off the lid and let the duck brown. Cut the finished duck into portions. Stir flour slaked with water into the sauce and boil it gently, then strain it, add the cranberries, warm it through, and return the duck to the sauce. Simmer for 5 minutes. Serve with a slice of lemon on each portion. The result is a wonderfully tender, delicious roast duck with cranberries.
