Sweet And Sour Duck - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 duck breasts
1 pinch white pepper
1 teaspoon rice wine or 1 teaspoon dry sherry
2 tablespoons cornstarch
7/8 cup peanut oil
1 in piece fresh ginger, peeled and finely sliced
1 red pepper, deseeded and cut into 1/2in chunks
2 small oranges, juice
1 lime, juice
1 tablespoon light soy sauce

Preparation

Remove the skin from the duck breasts and cut the duck into thin slices. Put the duck slices in a bowl with a pinch of salt, the white pepper, rice wine or dry sherry and the cornstarch. Mix well.
Heat a wok over a high heat and pour in the peanut oil. Heat the oil to 350F or until a cube of bread dropped in turns golden brown in 15 seconds and floats to the surface.
Shallow fry the duck in the oil for about 2 mins, stirring now and again, until golden and crispy on the outside.
Take the wok off the heat, remove the duck with a slotted spoon and drain on absorbent kitchen paper. Pour the oil from the wok through a fine seive into a bowl.
Return 1 tbs of the oil to the wok (you can discard the rest) and return the wok to a high heat. When the oil starts to smoke, add the ginger and stir fry for a few seconds., then add the red pepper and stir fry for 1 minute.
Return the fried duck slices to the wok. Next add the orange juice, lime juice and soy sauce and toss together until well combined.
Serve immediately.
