Serves : 2
Preparation time : 5-6 minutes
Cooking time : 6-8 minutes
Ingredients :
4-5 tablespoons raw breast of duck
very tiny pinch bicarbonate of soda
15 very thin slices fresh ginger
2-3 young spring onions
good pinch each salt and monosodium glutamate 1/2 teaspoon sugar
several shakes pepper
3 teaspoons ginger sherry
2 tablespoons peanut oil
4 tablespoons hot chicken stock
1 good teaspoon cornflour
1 dessertspoon water
Method :
Place the skinned raw breast of duck on a board and hold it in position with one hand while cutting it diagonally into thin slices with the other.
Work th bicarbonate of soda into them and leave to rest for at least 1 hour. (Duck is firm meat. The effect of the soda on it is to tenderize it.) Cut the ginger into thin strips and the onions into 2 inch lengths.
Work the seasonings and 2 teaspoons sherry into the duck.
Heat the oil in a frying pan. Add the duck and toss it while cooking for 3 minutes. Add the ginger and onions and cook for another 2 minutes. Add the hot stock and the remaining ginger sherry. Bring to the boil.
Stir in the cornflour, blended with the water, and boil for 11/2 minutes.
