Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Duck

    Clean and cut the duck into pieces. Marinate with salt, turmeric powder, and garam masala for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Base

    In a heavy-bottomed pot, heat the cooking oil. Add sliced onions and sauté until golden brown. Add ginger-garlic paste and sauté until the raw smell disappears.

  3. 3

    Add Tomatoes and Spices

    Add chopped tomatoes and green chilies to the pot. Cook until the tomatoes are soft. Stir in coriander powder and curry leaves.

  4. 4

    Slow Cook the Duck

    Add the marinated duck pieces to the pot. Sauté for a few minutes until the duck is browned. Pour in the coconut milk and bring to a simmer. Cover and cook on low heat for about 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the duck is tender.

  5. 5

    Final Adjustments

    Check for seasoning and adjust salt if necessary. Cook uncovered for another 15-20 minutes to thicken the gravy if desired.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve hot with chemba idiappam or ghee rice.
