Cassoulet Question

Hi, I am cooking a big cassoulet for dinner party soon. It says to use confit of duck. Can I use 'normal' duck legs instead, as trying not to spend a fortune! I was thinking of slow
Cooking them prior so they are soft and not too chewy or stringy? Do you think that will work? I have read you can confit them yourself first but that will involve time and also buying lots extra duck fat!

Use the legs.

The recipe says confit because it’s an old peasant dish and confit is what they would have had in the larder.
