Instructions

1

Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7. Boil a full kettle.

Heat a medium frying pan on medium-high heat (no oil). Once hot, lay the duck in the pan, skin-side down, and fry until the skin is golden, 6-8 mins. Flip, then sear the other side for 1 min more. 

Transfer to a baking tray, skin-side up, and season with salt and pepper. Roast on the top shelf of your oven until cooked, 16-18 mins.

Once cooked, transfer to a plate and rest for 5 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw duck and its packaging. The duck is fully cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

2

Meanwhile, pour the boiled water into a large saucepan on medium heat. Add the noodles and 0.5 tsp salt to the water. Cook until tender, 4 mins. 

Once cooked, drain in a sieve and run under cold water to stop them sticking together. 

While the noodles cook, trim the pak choi, then cut into roughly 2cm pieces. Halve any thick broccoli stems lengthways.

Crush the peanuts in the unopened sachet using a rolling pin. Halve the lime.

3

Heat a drizzle of oil in a large saucepan on medium-high heat.

Add the yellow Thai style paste and cook, stirring, for 1 min.

Stir in the coconut milk, soy sauce, sugar and water for the sauce (see pantry for both amounts). Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and stir in the peanut butter until well combined.

Add the pak choi and young pea pods and simmer until the veg is soft, 5-6 mins.

4

Meanwhile, give the frying pan used earlier a quick clean, then return to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.

Once hot, add the Tenderstem® and stir-fry for 2-3 mins. 

Add a splash of water, then cover with a lid (or foil) and allow to cook until tender, 4-6 mins more. Season with salt and pepper.

5

Once the veg are cooked, stir the cooked noodles into the laksa and heat through until piping hot, 1 min. Add a splash of water if it's a little too thick.

Stir through a good squeeze of lime juice.

Taste and season with pepper and more lime juice if needed.

Once the duck has rested, cut widthways into 1cm slices.

6

Share your laksa between your bowls and top with the sliced duck breast.

Sprinkle over half the peanuts.

Serve the broccoli on the side and sprinkle with the remaining peanuts.

Cut any remaining lime into wedges and serve alongside. 

Enjoy!
