Preparation steps

1.

Preheat the oven to 180°C (approximately 350°F). 

2.

Rinse the duck and pat dry. Peel the shallots and cut into wedges. Peel the apples, quarter, core and cut into wedges. Pluck the rosemary needles and mix with the shallots and apples. Season with salt and pepper. Season the duck inside and out with salt and pepper and stuff with the apple-shallot mixture. Secure the cavity with butcher's twine, place in a roasting pan, breast-side down, add 500 ml (approximately 2 cups) water and roast for about 2 hours, basting with pan juices often and turning the duck after 1 hour. Increase the heat to 220°C (approximately 425°F) and cook until the skin is crispy. 

3.

Remove the duck from the oven, discard the butcher's twine and serve on a serving platter.
