This classic French dish, known as canard aux framboises, combines succulent roasted duck breasts with a sophisticated fruit-based sauce. The richness of the magret duck is perfectly balanced by the sharp acidity of raspberry vinegar and the natural sweetness of fresh berries. Scoring the skin and roasting it skin-side down ensures a beautifully crisp finish, while the inclusion of a high-quality demi-glace provides a professional depth of flavour to the glossy reduction.
An impressive choice for a formal dinner party or a celebratory weekend meal, this dairy-free main course is surprisingly straightforward to prepare. Serve the sliced duck over a bed of wilted greens or with fondant potatoes to soak up the vibrant sauce. It is a timeless recipe that highlights how seasonal fruit can transform a savoury meat dish into something truly special.

Ingredients for Duck with Raspberries (Canard aux Framboises)
1.8kg boneless magret duck breast halves with skin (about 4)
60g finely chopped shallots
2 garlic cloves, chopped
2 tablespoons sugar
80ml raspberry vinegar
240ml demi-glace (180g
preferably D'Artagnan duck and veal demi-glace)
475ml raspberries(350g), divided
1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into bits
How to make Duck with Raspberries (Canard aux Framboises)
Put a large shallow flameproof roasting pan in middle of oven and preheat to 204°C.
Pat duck dry and trim off any excess fat. Score skin in a crosshatch pattern at 1/2-inch intervals with a sharp knife, then season with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoons pepper (total). Roast, skin side down, in hot pan until an instant-read thermometer inserted diagonally into centre registers 52°C, 20 to 25 minutes.
Turn on grill. Turn duck skin side up. Grill 4 to 6 inches from heat until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Transfer duck to a cutting board and let rest (skin side up) 10 minutes.
While duck rests, pour off all but 1 tablespoon fat from pan, then add shallots and garlic and saué over medium-high heat until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Add sugar and cook, stirring, until dissolved. Stir in vinegar, scraping up brown bits. Add demi-glace and bring to a simmer. Stir in half of raspberries.
Force sauce through a fine-mesh sieve into a small saucepan, discarding solids. Skim off excess fat. Over low heat, swirl in butter. Remove from heat and add remaining raspberries.
Slice duck and serve with sauce.
