tucupi

🥗Healthier: vegetable broth

💰Cheaper: chicken broth

grano duro pasta

🥗Healthier: whole wheat pasta

💰Cheaper: regular pasta

Whole wheat pasta adds fiber and nutrients.

1

Prepare the duck by cutting it into pieces and seasoning with salt and black pepper.

2

Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat and brown the duck pieces until golden on all sides.

3

Remove the duck and set aside, then add chopped onion and garlic to the pot, sautéing until translucent.

4

Add the duck back to the pot along with bay leaves and water, bringing it to a simmer.

5

Cover and cook the duck for about 1.5 to 2 hours until tender, skimming off any foam that forms.

6

Once cooked, remove the duck and strain the broth, discarding solids and reserving the liquid.

7

In a separate pot, cook the grano duro pasta according to package instructions until al dente, then drain.

8

In the same pot, add the reserved broth and bring to a boil, then add the jambu and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes.

9

Shred the duck meat and return it to the pot with the jambu and broth, stirring to combine.

10

Serve the duck mixture over the cooked grano duro pasta, garnished with fresh cilantro and sliced green chili.
