Start by preparing the dhal (lentils) that Auntie Jean ground for you.

Bring water to a boil in a pot.

Add the ground dhal to the boiling water.

Season with salt and curry powder to taste.

While the dhal is cooking, prepare the duck by cutting it into pieces.

In a separate pan, heat oil and sauté chopped onions until they are translucent.

Add minced garlic and ginger to the onions and sauté until fragrant.

Add the duck pieces to the pan and brown them on all sides.

Pour in water to cover the duck and bring to a simmer.

Add pepper and any additional spices you prefer to the duck curry.

Let the duck curry cook until the duck is tender, about 30-40 minutes.

Check the dhal for doneness; it should be soft and creamy.

Serve the dhal with the duck curry on the side.
