Instructions thoroughly clean and wash the duck meat, remove any small feathers and set a side to allow the excess water to drain out of the meat.

when the oil starts to smoulder add one clove of peeled unchopped carlic to the oil.
allow the garlic to fry until it blackens..do not remove.
add the meat, reserve the marinade.

cover and allow to simmer for 40 minutes.


combine the remaining ingredients including the coconut creme with the rest of the marinade and add to the pot after the first 2o minutes of cooking.
adjust salt to taste.

more pepper can be added of desired.

the duck can be finished with a curry sauce to be served with rice or be cooked dry without a gravy to serve as a finger food.
if allowed to cook dry add 2 teaspoons of roasted ground geera 1 minute before turning off the stove for an additional aromatic geera flavour.
if serving as a finger food it goes down best with cold beer.


a hot pepper saucce can be made by combining lime juice, with equal portions of: chopped peppers, chopped cubed carrots, chopped carili or bitter gourd, chopped onions.
this side dish appetizer is called by trinidadians , a "mother in law".
the lime juice brings out the zing in the pepper.
