Who out there loves Duck? It is one of my favourite meats to have in Asian cuisine. Duck can be a little tricky to cook some times but done well, is just heaven in your mouth. This isn’t a complicated dish, is super simple and a great dish for entertaining too. The combination of the hot and cold salad with citrus & spice along with the crunch from the duck is just to die for.
Can I also let you in on a little secret with this dish? This is 100% vegan. Yes you read correctly. I guarantee that if I gave you this without telling you it wasn’t real duck, you would be none the wiser. As you know Bec is the Vegetarian in our family but that doesn’t stop us from enjoying an amazing Asian duck dish.
The brand of duck we use can be found at any good vegan/vegetarian grocer and is a great alternative for when you have a vegetarian or vegan in the house and the taste is just amazing. Enjoy!
