Directions

  1. 1

    Chop the almonds and roast without fat. Remove. Chop figs very finely. Mix with almonds, cinnamon, chili flakes and 1 tsp. oil.

  2. 2

    Wash the fillets, dab dry. Cut the skin off the meat with a knife, put aside. Cut the fillets lengthwise, so that one meat plate is formed at a time. Season with salt. Spread fig mixture on top and leave a 1 cm wide edge all around.

  3. 3

    Roll up fillets from the long side, tie up with kitchen string.

  4. 4

    Preheat oven (electric cooker: 80°C/circulating air and gas not suitable). Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a small roaster. Fry the rolls for 4-5 minutes. Cook in the oven for 1 - 1 1/4 hours.

  5. 5

    In the meantime clean or peel the vegetables, wash and finely dice them. Boil 350 ml water with broth. Add couscous and vegetables, bring to the boil and simmer for 1 minute. Switch off the stove. Cover the couscous and let it swell for about 10 minutes.

  6. 6

    Then stir in butter. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

  7. 7

    Cut the duck skin into strips. Fry in a hot pan without fat at medium heat for about 5 minutes while turning until crispy. Drain on kitchen paper. Cut the rolls into slices. Arrange everything.
