Roast for 2 hours, or until very tender. The liquid should have reduced to a saucy consistency. If not, remove the duck and keep it warm while reducing the liquid over a high heat on the stove. Check the seasoning. Serve the duck legs over the pasta, moistened with sauce and sprinkled with gremolata.
To make the citrus gremolata, pour boiling water over the fruit. Drain and dry, then zest. Mix the zest with the garlic and parsley.

Cook's Tip: Serve this Italian-inspired dish with short pasta such as rigatoni, penne rigate or fusilli to catch all the sauciness.
