Potato Wedges

Duck Confit

Dijon Demi-Glace

Method

Potato Wedges

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Wash the russet potatoes thoroughly and cut them into wedges (about 1 inch thick).

  2. 2

    Season the Wedges

    In a large bowl, toss the potato wedges with olive oil, dried rosemary, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.

  3. 3

    Bake the Wedges

    Spread the seasoned potato wedges on a baking sheet in a single layer. Bake in the preheated oven for about 30-35 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.

Duck Confit

  1. 4

    Prepare the Duck

    Rub the duck legs with salt and black pepper. Place them in a deep baking dish with garlic cloves and thyme sprigs. Cover with duck fat.

  2. 5

    Cook the Duck

    Cover the dish with aluminum foil and cook in the oven at 300°F (150°C) for 2-3 hours, until the duck meat is tender and falls off the bone.

  3. 6

    Shred the Duck

    Remove the duck from the fat and let it cool slightly. Shred the meat off the bones, discarding the skin and bones. Set aside.

Dijon Demi-Glace

  1. 7

    Sauté Shallots

    In a saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add chopped shallots and sauté until translucent.

  2. 8

    Deglaze with Red Wine

    Pour in the red wine and bring to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Cook until reduced by half.

  3. 9

    Add Beef Stock and Dijon

    Stir in the beef stock and Dijon mustard. Simmer for about 15 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Assembly

  1. 10

    Assemble the Poutine

    On a plate, layer the crispy potato wedges with shredded duck confit. Top with Dan & Debbie's cheese curds and drizzle with Dijon demi-glace. Garnish with chopped parsley.
