Prepare the duck breast :
Season the duck breasts on both sides with salt and pepper. Heat a skillet over medium heat without oil. Place the duck breasts skin-side down in the pan. Cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the skin is crispy and golden brown. Turn the duck breasts over and cook for another 2-3 minutes for medium-rare (or longer if you prefer them well-done). Remove the duck breasts from the pan and let them rest in aluminum foil. -
Fry the celeriac :
Heat the vegetable oil in another pan over medium heat. Fry the thinly sliced celeriac in batches for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy. Remove from the pan and set aside on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil. -
Make the blueberry juice :
Melt the butter in the pan in which you seared the duck breast. Add the blueberries and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they begin to burst. Add the game stock and balsamic vinegar and simmer gently for 8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. -
Serve :
Arrange the crispy fried celeriac slices on plates. Thinly slice the duck breast and place it on top of the celeriac. Spoon the blueberry jus over it and garnish with watercress or some fresh blueberries, if desired.
