Ingredients
Method
Techniques
- ¼ cup water
- ½ cup regular old soy sauce
- ¼ cup mirin
- 2 tbsp sugar
In a small saucepan combine the water, soy sauce, mirin and sugar; simmer over about medium heat for about 20 minutes until it begins to thicken.
- 4 whole tomatillos
- green chili
- 1 clove garlic
- water
- cilantro
- 1 tsp salt
Quarter the raw tomatillos into a blender with the chopped green chili, garlic, a little water, a handful of cilantro and the salt; blend to a coarse puree.
- 1 whole duck
Roast a duck at about 325 for an hour and a half to two hours until crisp-skinned and tender, or buy a Chinese roast duck.
Stir-fry the duck a couple of minutes until crisp and browned, add about a quarter cup of the soy glaze, toss just long enough to glaze, and turn off the heat.
- 2 sprigs cilantro sprigs
Press the duck into a large biscuit cutter on the plate, lift off, dribble on more soy glaze and add a couple of sprigs of cilantro.
