Preheat the oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Cut the kent pumpkin, beetroot and brown onion into thin wedges. Place on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat. Roast until tender, 20-25 minutes.
TIP: Peel the pumpkin, if preferred!
While the veggies are roasting, trim the green beans. Pick the thyme. Finely chop the garlic. In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Add the green beans and cook until tender, 4-5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl, then season to taste.
To a second lined oven tray, add the roast duck breast, skin-side up. Roast until lightly browned and heated through, 8-10 minutes.
When the duck is roasted, return the frying pan to high heat. Once hot, cook the duck, skin-side down, until the skin is golden brown, 1-2 minutes. Transfer to a plate to rest for 5 minutes. Meanwhile, return the frying pan to a medium-high heat. Add the butter and cook until beginning to brown, 2-3 minutes. Add the garlic and thyme and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Remove from the heat, then season to taste.
To the bowl with the green beans, add the rocket leaves, grated Parmesan cheese and a drizzle of white wine vinegar. Toss to combine.
Slice the roast duck. Divide the duck, root veggies and Parmesan greens between plates. Spoon the brown butter thyme sauce over the duck. Sprinkle with pine nuts to serve.
