  1. BUBBLY RICE

    Place the rinsed rice in a pot. Submerge in 150ml of salted water, pop on a lid, and place over a medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes until most of the water has been absorbed. Remove from the heat and steam with the lid on for 10 minutes until cooked and tender. Drain if necessary, fluff up with a fork, and return to the pot to stay warm until serving.

  2. QUICK PICKLE

    Place ½ of the lime juice into a bowl with 25ml of water and toss through the shredded cabbage. Set aside to pickle until serving.

  3. TOASTY SEEDS

    Place the sesame seeds in a pan over a medium heat. Toast for 2-4 minutes until lightly browned, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pan on completion and set aside to cool. Also set aside the pan to cool slightly.

  4. SPICED DUCK

    Pat the duck breast dry with paper towel. Using a sharp knife, cut broad, cross-hatch slits into the duck skin, without piercing the flesh, and coat with the Chinese 5-spice to taste. Place the duck breast in the cooled pan skin-side down without oil. Place over a medium heat and let the duck fat render while the pan heats up. Fry for 5-8 minutes until the skin is crispy. Drain the excess duck fat and set aside for step 5. Flip the duck breast, and cook for 2-4 minutes on the other side. Remove from the pan on completion and allow to rest before slicing and seasoning.

  5. SAUCY PINEAPPLE

    Return the pan to a medium heat with a drizzle of oil. Char the pineapple rings for 2-3 minutes per side. Remove from the pan and cover to keep warm. Return the pan to a medium heat with the rendered duck fat and a drizzle of oil if necessary. When hot, fry the grated Garlic for 30-60 seconds. Add the hoisin sauce, and some lime juice to taste. Just before serving, drain the pickling liquid from the shredded cabbage.

  6. WHAT A BEAUTY!

    Make a bed of rice and pile up the pickled cabbage. Lay the juicy duck slices and charred pineapple rings on top. Drizzle over generous spoonfuls of the sticky sauce. Garnish with the coriander leaves and toasted sesame seeds. Well done, Chef!

How do I prepare Sticky Duck Breast?

SPICED DUCK: Pat the duck breasts dry with paper towel. Using a sharp knife, cut broad, cross-hatch slits into the duck skin, without piercing the flesh, and coat with the Chinese 5-spice to taste. Place the duck breasts in the cooled pan skin-side down without oil. Place over a medium heat and let the duck fat render while the pan heats up. Fry for 5-8 minutes until the skin is crispy. Drain the excess duck fat and set aside for step 5. Flip the duck breasts, and cook for 2-4 minutes on the other side. Remove from the pan on completion and allow to rest before slicing and seasoning. BUBBLY RICE: Place the rinsed rice in a pot. Submerge in 300ml of salted water, pop on a lid, and place over a medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes until most of the water has been absorbed. Remove from the heat and steam with the lid on for 10 minutes until cooked and tender. Drain if necessary, fluff up with a fork, and return to the pot to stay warm until serving. SAUCY PINEAPPLE: Return the pan to a medium heat with a drizzle of oil. Char the pineapple rings for 2-3 minutes per side. Remove from the pan and cover to keep warm. Return the pan to a medium heat with the rendered duck fat and a drizzle of oil if necessary. When hot, fry the grated garlic for 30-60 seconds. Add the hoisin sauce, and some lime juice to taste. Just before serving, drain the pickling liquid from the shredded cabbage. TOASTY SEEDS: Place the sesame seeds in a pan over a medium heat. Toast for 2-4 minutes until lightly browned, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pan on completion and set aside to cool. Also set aside the pan to cool slightly. WHAT A BEAUTY!: Make a bed of rice and pile up the pickled cabbage. Lay the juicy duck slices and charred pineapple rings on top. Drizzle over generous spoonfuls of the sticky sauce. Garnish with the coriander leaves and toasted sesame seeds. Well done, Chef! QUICK PICKLE: Place ½ of the lime juice into a bowl with 50ml of water and toss through the shredded cabbage.
