Recipe by Ruslan Zakirov, chef of the Kuznya House restaurant. Instead of the duck leg in this recipe, there could have been, for example, beef ribeye, baked chicken or pork chop. It would still have been an excellent illustration of the fact that sweet potato as a side dish looks much more elegant than regular potatoes. Its sweetness especially suits "wild" meat, to which duck also belongs in a sense.
