Turn the duck on to the opposite side and repeat the process. Place duck on its back and baste. Cook for an additional 20 minutes.

Drain off any excess fat and coat the duck with the redcurrant jelly.

Squeeze over the lemon juice, cook for a further 40 minutes. Remove the duck and keep warm. Add the onion to the pan, cook lightly and stir in the ginger and coriander.

Add the stock and bring to the boil, add the kumquats, blend well and serve.

Pilaff: Wash and drain the rice, then put into a pan with the stock and bring to a simmer. Add the cinnamon sticks, cover and cook at low heat for 20 minutes. Add the butter, raisins and almonds, cover and leave to rest undisturbed for 5 minutes.
