Cooking Steps

Prepare
1
  • Slice the onion into half-rings.
  • Crush or mince the garlic. Peel the ginger and then mince it or use a microplane as preferred.
  • Deseed and finely chop the red chili pepper.*
  • In a salad bowl, combine the soy sauce with a quarter each of the East Asian-style sauce, garlic, chili pepper* and ginger.

*Take care, this ingredient is spicy! Use as preferred.

Fry the duck
2
  • Heat a drizzle of sunflower oil in a frying pan over high heat. Fry the dressing for 30 seconds, then return it to the salad bowl.
  • Place the same pan over medium-high heat. Fry the duck with the onion for 3 - 4 minutes, covered.
  • Cut the lime into eight wedges.
  • Slice two-thirds of the cucumber into rounds and then cut the rest into thin batons.
Make the salad
3
  • Transfer the cucumber batons to the salad bowl. Add the sesame oil and the juice of 1 lime wedge per person. Toss well to combine.
  • Cut the carrot into matchsticks. Roughly chop the peanuts and finely chop the parsley.
  • In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise with another quarter of the East Asian-style sauce.
  • Set all of this aside until serving.
Make the sauce
4
  • Transfer the duck to a plate and use two forks to roughly shred it.
  • Place the frying pan over medium-high heat. Fry the teriyaki sauce with the rest of the ginger, garlic, chilli pepper and East Asian-style sauce for 3 - 4 minutes.
  • Return the duck to the pan and mix well to combine.
  • Keep warm over a low heat until serving.
Steam the bao buns
5
  • Boil a shallow layer of water in a pot or saucepan (see Tip).
  • Line a metal sieve with parchment paper and place it in the pan, making sure it doesn't touch the water.
  • Transfer the bao buns to the sieve and steam for 5 - 7 minutes until soft, covered.

Tip: you can also use a steamer basket instead if preferred.

Serve
6
  • Cut open the bao buns and spread with the sauce.
  • Fill with the teriyaki duck, the carrot, the cucumber rounds, the parsley and the peanuts.
  • Serve the cucumber salad on the side, along with any remaining toppings.
  • Scatter over the sesame seeds and serve with the rest of the lime wedges.
