Heat a 6-quart stove-top casserole and add the oil. Brown the duck pieces and remove from the pan. Saute the onion and then add all ingredients to the pot. Cover and bring to a simmer. You may need a bit of water. Simmer until tender, about 1½ hours. Watch that it does not dry out, in which case you must add a bit more water. This recipe serves 6.
Comments: This dish is a smash. I tasted it for the first time in a fine restaurant on the outskirts of Athens and the recipe is simple to duplicate. You will have no problem with this one.
