How to make it

  1. Brown the duck pieces skin side down in a heavy-based saucepan until some of the fat has melted; spoon off the excess fat.
  2. Add the chopped onion and sauté it in the remaining fat. Add the paprika and garlic and stir briefly, without burning the paprika.
  3. Add the water, bay leaf and pepper. Cover and simmer over a low heat for 75–90 minutes, until the meat is tender; top up with water as needed.
  4. Season with salt and reduce the sauce with the lid off for the last few minutes. Serve with mămăligă (Romanian polenta).
