Steps:
- Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Spread the rosemary sprigs and garlic cloves into a 9x13-inch baking dish.
- Place the duck legs on top of the rosemary, and sprinkle with salt and five-spice powder. Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour. Meanwhile, bring the wine to a boil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir in the currant jelly until dissolved. Reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer 5 minutes; set aside.
- After the duck has cooked 1 hour, pour off and discard the fat that has accumulated in the baking dish. Pour the wine sauce over the duck legs, and bake 15 minutes more until the duck is very tender and the sauce has thickened slightly.

CRISPY SKINNED DUCK WITH TRUFFLED RED CURRANT PORT SAUCE AND TRU
This is a very elegant dinner party meal, it looks and smells wonderful and it tastes unbelievable with the truffle oil in the parsnip mash and the port berry sauce is very good. It is a little time consuming as there is a little prep time, chopping vegetables and also the cooking down of the sauce, but it is well worth it for the end result. My whole family thought it was yummo and kept raving about both the duck with the sauce and how much they loved the parsnip mash, I had gone up to my mum's house for dinner and made this so it was tested out on many and a success all round. I am listing the recipe below for 2 people as I wrote down the ingredients I used when just making for myself and hubby, because it is hard to reduce the sauce amounts without affecting the flavour the sauce would be enough for 4-6 people. So you could cook extra breasts and then just up the amount of mash ingredients.
