Dredge duck pieces in seasoned flour. Heat oil in a 12- to 14-inch sauté pan (with lid) until just smoking. Add 4 pieces duck and cook until golden brown on all sides, about 7 to 9 minutes, and remove to a plate. Continue with remaining pieces. After removing last pieces, add onion, garlic, cumin and brown sugar and cook until softened and light brown (sugar should almost be syrupy). Add sherry vinegar and reduce to nothing.
