Duck with Cashews

🇨🇳 Chinese

High heat, big flavour: duck seared with aromatics and a shiny sauce that clings to every bite. 27 minutes of mostly hands-off cooking.

Prep 10 min Cook 17 min Serves 3 Easy

Ingredients

  • Saltto taste
  • Ginger4 cloves, minced
  • Bell Pepper1, sliced
  • Spring Onions3, cut into batons
  • Soy Sauce2 tbsp
  • Sichuan Peppercorns1 tsp
  • Cashews100 g
  • Peanut Oil2 tbsp
  • Duck600 g, legs

Optional extras

  • Fresh Cilantrohandful, to finish

Instructions

  1. 1

    Get your wok ripping hot and add the Peanut Oil — it should shimmer instantly.

  2. 2

    Toss in the ginger and sichuan peppercorns for 15 seconds, no longer, so they perfume the oil without burning.

  3. 3

    Add the duck and stir-fry hard, keeping everything moving until just cooked through.

  4. 4

    Throw in the bell pepper and spring onions, then splash in the soy sauce around the edge of the wok.

  5. 5

    Toss twice more, kill the heat, and serve immediately over steamed rice — a stir-fry waits for no one.

Chef's tip

For deeper flavour, toast the sichuan peppercorns in the oil before adding anything wet.
