Cook Time 45 minutes
Servings 8
Ingredients
2 confit duck legs
¼ cup walnuts, roughly chopped
1 tbs. olive oil
2 apples, grated
1 onion, finely chopped
Pinch sugar
1 tsp. Chinese 5 spice
1 packet filo pastry
50gm butter, melted
Salt and pepper
Method
Preheat the oven to 200°C.
Heat the confit of duck in the oven until just heated through. Cool slightly before shredding the meat. Add the walnuts to this.
In a pan, heat the oil and sauté the apples and onions until caramelised with the sugar and 5 spice. This should take 5 minutes.
Take 2 filo sheets, brush with butter and sandwich together. Cut this in half. Place a small spoonful of the apple mixture and then the duck mixture on the bottom third of the pastry. Fold in the sides and then roll to form a cigar shape. Repeat the process.
Place on a baking tray and brush each cigar with butter. Bake for 25 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm with some chutney
