Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
Chop the potatoes lengthways into 1cm slices, then chop into 1cm wide chips (no need to peel). Pop them onto a large baking tray.
Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, then sprinkle over the dried rosemary. Toss to coat, then spread out in a single layer. TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.
When the oven is hot, bake on the top shelf until golden, 25-30 mins. Turn halfway through.
Remove the confit duck legs from their packaging.
Place onto a lined baking tray, skin-side up, and season with salt and pepper.
Roast on the middle shelf of your oven for 25-30 mins. IMPORTANT: The duck is cooked when piping hot throughout.
Pour the water for the jus (see pantry for amount) into a medium saucepan and bring to the boil on high heat.
Stir in the red wine jus paste and redcurrant jelly, then reduce the heat to medium. Allow the sauce to bubble and thicken, stirring regularly, 5-6 mins.
When the sauce has 2 mins left, stir through half the dried cranberries and simmer for the remaining time.
Once thickened, cover with a lid or foil to keep warm.
Once the duck is piping hot, transfer to a plate. Use two works to shred the meat as finely as you can. Discard the bones.
Reheat the jus if needed, adding a splash of water if it's a little too thick.
Add the shredded duck to the jus and gently stir until everything's well combined.
Slice the buns down through the middle (but not all the way through).
When the chips have 2 mins left, pop the buns into the oven to warm through.
When ready, pop the warmed buns onto your plates and spread each with the mayo (see pantry for amount).
Load the buns with the pulled duck and plate up the rosemary chips alongside.
Share the rocket between your plates. Drizzle with a little olive oil and the balsamic glaze, then sprinkle over the remaining dried cranberries to finish.
Enjoy!
