Instructions for Smothered Duck with Root Vegetables

ESSENCE OF EMERIL SHOW #EE2294 In a cast iron skillet, heat the olive oil. Season both the meat and the flour with essence. Dredge the duck pieces in the flour. When the oil is smoking hot, add the duck pieces, skin side down. Brown the duck for 2 to 3 minutes on each side to get an even browning. Remove the duck and set aside. In the same oil, stir in 2 tablespoons of the remaining flour. Add the onions, carrots, celery, parsnips, turnips and garlic. Saute the vegetables for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the fresh herbs and season with salt and pepper. Add the duck pieces. Pour the duck stock and the red wine into the pan. Bring the liquid up to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Cover with a lid. Simmer the duck for 30 to 35 minutes or until the vegetables are fork tender. Reseason with salt and pepper if needed. Mound the potatoes in the center of a shallow bowl. Remove a couple of duck pieces and place on top of the potatoes. Spoon the sauce and vegetables over the duck. Garnish with the parsnip strips and green onions.
