COOK TIME

1 hour

Instructions

  • Step 1: Roast the Duck
  • Prepare the marinade: In a bowl, mix soy sauce, hoisin sauce, rice wine, honey, five-spice powder, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, white pepper, and salt. Stir to combine.
  • Marinate the duck: Rub the marinade all over the duck, ensuring it is evenly coated. Allow it to marinate for at least 2 hours or overnight in the refrigerator for more flavor.
  • Roast the duck: Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Place the duck on a rack in a roasting pan. Roast for about 1.5 to 2 hours, basting with the leftover marinade every 30 minutes until the skin is crispy and the meat is tender. Let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
  • Step 2: Prepare the Noodles
  • Cook the noodles: Boil the noodles in a pot of water (20-28secs+/-) . Drain and toss with sesame oil to prevent sticking.
  • Step 3: Make the Sauce
  • Combine the sauce ingredients: In a small saucepan, mix together soy sauce, oyster sauce, dark soy sauce, sugar, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and chicken stock. Bring to a simmer and cook for 3-5 minutes until the sauce is heated through and slightly thickened.
  • Step 4: Assemble the Dish
  • Place the noodles: Divide the cooked noodles into serving bowls.
  • Top with duck: Slice the roasted duck and place the pieces on top of the noodles.
  • Drizzle with sauce: Pour the hot sauce over the noodles and duck.
  • Garnish: Sprinkle with chopped coriander, spring onions, and cucumber slices for freshness. Serve with sambal chili for added spice.
