Method

5 steps
  1. Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°Cfan/gas 7; roast the duck according to pack instructions.

  2. Step 2

    Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large pan over a medium heat. Fry the onion, celery and carrot for 8-10 mins, stirring frequently until softened. Add the garlic and cook for 1-2 mins more.

  3. Step 3

    Add the pancetta, thyme and bay leaf; cook for a few mins until the pancetta starts to colour and crisp up

  4. Step 4

    Add the tomato purée and cook for 1-2 mins, then add the tinned tomatoes, cannellini beans and stock. Season well and bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and cook for 15-20 mins, stirring occasionally until the sauce is lovely and thick but not too dry. Taste and season. Remove the thyme sprigs and bay leaf and discard.

  5. Step 5

    Shred the crispy duck using 2 forks and arrange over the bean and tomato mixture in the pan. Scatter over the parsley and chopped salad onions (from the duck pack) and serve.
