My roasted duck 'sorta shepherd's pie'

I think people feel a bit scared of cooking duck and see it as the sort of thing you only get in posh restaurants. If you think it sounds fussy or expensive, trust me - it's not. It's really a very simple bird to cook and, once you've tried it, you'll cook it again and again!
