How to Roast in the Bag Oven cook from chilled Preheat oven to 200°C, Fan 180°C, Gas Mark 6... 1 Place in Oven... ...Place the duck (in its bag and tray) in a deep roasting tin (for ease of movement) and cook in the middle of the oven, avoiding direct contact with open flame or heating element, for the time stated on front of pack. 2 Cut the Bag... ...30 minutes before the end of the cooking time, remove from the oven and cut along the indicated marks on the front of the pack to expose the duck.

Return to the oven for the remaining cook time. 3 Rest & Serve... ...Rest for 10-20 minutes before carefully lifting from the bag and tray, then carve. Take care when removing the duck from the oven as there will be hot juices within the foil tray and packaging. All cooking appliances vary. This is a guide only. Warning: Contains bones.
