Preheat the oven to 200oC, gas mark 6.

Score the duck skin and fry, skin side down first for 1-2 minutes each side, transfer to a small roasting tin and add the figs, honey and half the sage. Roast for 10-15 minutes for medium.

Meanwhile, place the couscous in a bowl with remaining sage and pour over the hot stock. Cover and leave for 5 minutes before fluffing up with a fork.

Slice the duck into 4 and serve with the couscous topped with the figs drizzled with remaining juices.
