Arroz con Pato
BRAISED DUCK WITH CORIANDER RICE
To serve 4
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
l/2 teaspoon ground cumin seeds
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
A 4- to 5-pound duck, cut into 6 to 8 serving pieces and trimmed of all fat
1/4 cup olive oil
2 twelve-ounce bottles light beer
1 cup bock beer (if not available, use 1 cup additional light beer)
2 cups raw long-grain rice
1 cup finely chopped fresh coriander
1 cup cooked fresh green peas or thoroughly defrosted frozen peas

   In a small bowl combine the lemon juice, cumin seeds, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. With your fingers brush the pieces of duck on all sides with the mixture. Place the duck on a plate, cover with foil, and let it rest at room temperature for 3 hours, or refrigerated for 6 hours.

   In a heavy 4- to 5-quart flameproof casserole or saucepan, heat the oil over high heat until a light haze forms above it. Add the duck and brown it well on all sides, turning it frequently. Drain off and discard all but 2 tablespoons of fat from the casserole. Add the beer, bring to a boil over high heat, meanwhile scraping into it any brown bits from the bottom and sides of the pan. Reduce the heat to low, cover the casserole and cook the duck for 45 minutes, or until a leg shows no resistance when pierced with the tip of a knife. Transfer tire duck to a heated plate and cover it with foil to keep it warm.
