Chinese-inspired crispy duck with sticky plum, ginger, and five-spice glaze.
Ingredients:
  • 4 duck breasts (about 900g), skin on
  • 125ml (1/2 cup) plum sauce
  • 2 tsp finely grated ginger
  • 1 tsp Yeo’s Pure Sesame Oil
  • 1 tsp Chinese five spice
  • Sesame seeds, toasted, to serve
  • 125ml (1/2 cup) Kewpie Mayonnaise
  • 20.00 ml rice wine vinegar
  • 500g green cabbage, sliced
  • 2 pears, cored, cut into thin wedges
  • 2 green shallots, thinly sliced
  • 40.00 ml chopped fresh coriander leaves
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 200C/180C fan forced. Grease and line a baking tray. Score the duck skin without piercing the meat. Season generously.
  • Preheat a large frying pan over medium heat. Place the duck, skin side down, in the pan and cook until skin is crispy, about 5 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Transfer duck, skin side up, to the prepared tray.
  • In a bowl, mix together the plum sauce, ginger, garlic, sesame oil, and Chinese five spice. Season with salt and pepper. Brush the duck generously with the plum glaze, saving some for later. Roast the duck for 8-10 minutes until it's perfectly cooked. Let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing it thickly.
  • In a jug, mix together mayonnaise, rice wine vinegar, and season with salt and pepper. Place cabbage, pear, shallot, and coriander on a platter. Drizzle with the prepared mayonnaise mixture.
  • Transfer the leftover glaze to a small saucepan. Heat until boiling, then let it simmer for 1 minute until it thickens into a syrupy consistency.
  • Arrange sliced duck on top of the slaw and generously drizzle with the glaze. Finish by sprinkling with aromatic sesame seeds.
