The Happy Foodie

Melissa Hemsley's healthy take on this classic Chinese dish features succulent duck and a brilliant Hoisin sauce.

Ingredients

Duck

Method

1. Preheat the oven to fan 200°C/Gas mark 7.

2. With a sharp knife, score the fat of each duck breast in a crisscross pattern, then sprinkle over half the five-spice powder and salt and rub in.

3. Make the hoisin sauce by whisking all the ingredients together in a bowl, then taste for seasoning and set aside.

4. Heat up a wide, ovenproof frying pan to a high heat (no oil needed) and place the duck breasts, skin side down, in the pan. Sprinkle over the rest of the spice and salt. Cook for 3 minutes or until most of the fat has rendered, and the duck skin is golden.

5. Turn the duck breasts over and cook for a further 30 seconds to seal the other side. Place the pan in the oven for the duck to finish cooking – 8 minutes for rare or 10 minutes for medium rare – then remove the duck and leave to rest on a chopping board for 10 minutes. Use this time to make the chickpea batter and, while the duck is resting, use the same pan to make the wraps.

6. Pour any excess duck fat from the pan into a bowl. 7. Cut the duck breasts into thin slices, sprinkle with chilli flakes and place on a serving plate with the hoisin sauce in a bowl. Put the wraps on another plate and place the sliced cucumber and spring onions in a separate bowl. Let everyone assemble their own pancakes, pouring or spooning the hoisin sauce over the duck before adding the other ingredients.

Use It Up: Duck and orange go so well together, but if you don’t have an orange, use 2 tablespoons of lemon juice in the hoisin sauce instead. Save the duck fat for frying vegetables.
