Duck leg
Duck lard
Small potatoes
Beef Dripping

Vegetables and spices according to the recipe or discretion
Marinate the duck leg in a duck fat, fresh thyme, garlic, salt and coarsely ground black pepper. Leave in the marinade for about 6-8 hours.
Put the duck leg with all the spices from the marinade to a heat-resistant dish. Add bay leaf, allspice, and oranges cut into quarters. Cover everything thoroughly with duck fat.
Keep in the oven heated to a temperature of 160 degrees for 1.5 hour. Then raise the temperature to 180 degrees and keep another 15 minutes.
With a sharp narrow knife cut small potatoes but be careful not to cut them through completely. Marinate them in a Beef Dripping with coarsely ground black pepper, generously sprinkle with salt, add fresh thyme, sage, sliced garlic, a pinch of smoked paprika. Put all on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and keep in the oven preheated to 180 degrees for 40 minutes.
Peel the Asparagus from the bast, then blanch for a while and then cook in the butter emulsion with garlic for two minutes (butter emulsion vegetable stock, butter 1:1)
