Confit of duck is a classic French dish and it’s absolutely scrumptious! If you like duck with a crispy skin and meat that just falls off the bone, this is the food for you. It takes a little bit of preparation, but it’s worth it.

Sunday lunch is a time to indulge yourself. Gather up your friends and family, catch up on all the news, and enjoy a sumptuous roast.

Chorizo, Taleggio & Polenta Bake is fabulously full of flavour. It’s also incredibly easy to make, and perfect for sharing with friends.
Like most good recipes, this one has evolved over the years. I’m not exactly sure where the original idea came from, but it bares little resemblance to this personalised version. In any case, it goes particularly well with a bottle of crisp white wine though.
