FAQ
1. Can I use fresh potatoes instead of frozen potato cuts?
Yes, you can use fresh potatoes. Cut them into small, even pieces so they cook evenly and become golden and lightly crisp.
2. Do I need to add cooking oil?
Not necessarily. The smoked duck releases duck fat when pan-fried, which can be used to cook the potatoes and add extra flavour.
3. Can I use other herbs instead of Italian Herb Blend?
Yes, you can substitute it with dried rosemary, thyme, oregano or a combination of your preferred herbs.
4. How can I make this dish more filling?
Add a fried egg, sautéed mushrooms or a side of steamed vegetables to make it a more complete meal.
