Cooking Steps

Cook the rice
1
  • Boil the water for the rice in a pot or saucepan (see pantry for amount).
  • Cook the rice for 10 - 12 minutes, covered, then turn off the heat and allow to stand until serving.
  • Pat the duck dry with kitchen paper.
  • Use a sharp knife to score the surface of the duck in a crisscross pattern, being sure not to cut too deep. Season with salt and pepper.
Fry the duck
2
  • Place the duck skin-side down in a clean frying pan and set the heat to medium.
  • Fry for 7 - 9 minutes and allow the fat to render, until the skin is crisp and deeply golden-brown.
  • Flip and fry for 2 - 4 more minutes, so as to cook it medium-rare.
  • Remove from the pan and allow to rest under aluminum foil until serving.
Fry the vegetables
3
  • Halve the broccolini lengthways, or cut any thicker stems into quarters.
  • Discard the tips of the green beans, then transfer both to a deep frying pan and submerge with a shallow layer of water.
  • Bring to the boil and cook for 4 - 6 minutes, covered, then drain and return to the pan.
  • Drizzle with sunflower oil and fry for 3 - 4 minutes over high heat.
Prepare the aromatics
4
  • Add the ketjap and fry for 1 more minute. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Chop the onion and 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*.

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

Make the curry
5
  • In the same pan you used for the duck, fry the garlic, the ginger, the chili pepper and the onion for 2 - 3 minutes over medium-high heat.
  • Add the curry paste* and fry for 1 more minute.
  • Add the coconut milk and cook for 3 more minutes.
  • Chop the Thai basil and cut the lime into wedges.

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

Serve
6
  • Squeeze some lime juice as preferred directly into the curry, then season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Slice the duck.
  • Serve the rice and curry sauce on deep plates, then top with the vegetables and the duck.
  • Garnish with the peanuts and the Thai basil, then serve any remaining lime wedges alongside.
