Mallard are the largest type of wild duck, and are one of the most popular British game birds.

Our mallard are from estates across England.

Due to their size one Mallard will feed 2 comfortably.

Tip: Like a standard duck, mallard are fatty birds, and can be greasy. Before cooking, prick the skin all over (especially around the thighs) to allow the fat to escape, rub salt into the skin, and roast on a rack above a roasting tin.

One oven-ready bird supplied.

Each bird weighs a minimum of 650g and will provide 2 adult portions.

Defrost in a fridge for 24 hours before cooking, and use within 48 hours.

Once defrosted do not refreeze.

Prick the duck skin all over, and season with salt and pepper, inside and out.

Heat a small amount of oil in a medium-hot pan and sear the mallard for 2-3 minutes until browned all over.
