Cooking instructions

Cooking Mode turns the method into large, slide-by-slide instructions with timers, read-aloud, screen-awake and optional voice controls.

  1. 1

    Prepare the ingredients

    Preheat the oven to 220°C. Pat the duck legs dry. Finely chop the garlic and onion, cut the potatoes into chunks and break the cauliflower into florets.

  2. 2

    Roast the potatoes

    Toss the potatoes with olive oil, rosemary, salt and black pepper. Spread on a baking tray and roast for about 45 minutes, turning halfway, until crisp and golden.

  3. 3

    Roast the duck

    Season the duck legs separately with salt and black pepper. Place skin-side up in a roasting tin and roast until the skin is crisp and the meat is cooked through and tender. Rest briefly before serving.

  4. 4

    Cook the cauliflower

    Boil the cauliflower in salted water for 5–6 minutes until just tender. Drain thoroughly and transfer to an ovenproof dish.

  5. 5

    Make the truffled cheese sauce

    Melt the butter in a saucepan. Cook the onion and garlic until softened, stir in the flour for 1 minute, then gradually whisk in the milk. Simmer until thickened. Stir in cheddar, Parmesan and truffle oil, then season with salt and black pepper.

  6. 6

    Bake & serve

    Pour the truffled cheese sauce over the cauliflower and bake or grill until bubbling and golden. Serve alongside the rested roast duck legs and crisp roast potatoes.
