Ingredients: (For 4 to 6 servings)

6 Duck Legs
1kg Duck Fat
36 Unpeeled Garlic
Salt

Steps:

1. Wash the duck legs and dry them with paper towel. Sprinkle the salt evenly on the legs and rub on the meat and skin. Wrap them with the food wrap and place in the refrigerator for 2 days. 





2. After 2 days when the legs are ready. Render the duck fat with low heat.

3. Cool the rendered duck fat to around room temperature. Place the duck legs into the fat. Make sure that every leg is soaked into the fat. Add the unpeeled garlic into the pot and cook with very low heat for 2 hours. After 2 hour, turn off the heat. When the pot is cooled, place the pot into the refrigerator.

4. When you want to eat the leg, remove the leg from the fat. Take a pan and saute the leg with medium fire until the skin turns gold. The meat should be done since it is cooked in the duck fat for 2 hours. Spread some fresh parsley for serving.
