Ingredients
- 4 duck legs
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 4 tbsp zaatar
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 lemon (cut into wedges)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 130°C or 265°F
- Place the duck legs in a roasting tin just large enough to hold them and drizzle with the oil and rub it into the duck legs. Sprinkle each leg with 1 tbsp of the zaatar and rub into to completely coat then season evenly with the salt. Arrange the legs skin side up in the tin and place in the oven.
- Cook for 2½ hours, basting with the rendered fat 3-4 times during that time to ensure they stay moist.
- Remove from the oven and rest for 5 minutes before serving.Serve with more of the zaatar to sprinkle and lemon wedges to squeeze over.
