In a large ovenproof baking dish, mix all the ingredients. Tightly cover the dish with foil or a well-fitting lid. Cook in the center of the oven for 3 hours, until the meat is falling apart. Remove the lid and discard the bay leaf and duck bones and any little pieces of meat which may have dried too far.
