Baked Duck

One of the classic recipes for baked turkey duck is duck with prunes. Turkey duck meat is less fatty than regular duck, and it will also cook faster. To prepare baked turkey duck, we need to soak the prunes in advance. For spices, use coriander and mixed peppers. We'll rub the bird with these spices.
