Cooking Steps
• Thinly slice cucumber into rounds. Trim and halve pea pods. • Slice lime into wedges. Finely chop garlic, long chilli (if using) and coriander (reserve some leaves for garnish). • In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine garlic, chilli and a drizzle of olive oil and microwave in 10 second bursts, until fragrant. • To the bowl, add chopped coriander, fish sauce & rice vinegar mix, the white sugar, hot water and a generous squeeze of lime juice. Stir until well combined. Set aside.
• Remove label from the roast duck breast tray (do not peel or puncture plastic film). • Microwave on high for 3 minutes. Carefully remove plastic film. Using paper towel, pat the duck skin dry then rub with a good pinch of salt. • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium heat. Cook duck, skin-side down, until skin is golden brown, 3-5 minutes. Transfer to a plate to rest.
• In a large bowl, combine cucumber, pea pods, mixed salad leaves, a drizzle of olive oil and a squeeze of lime juice. Season to taste.
• Thinly slice duck. • Divide prime seared duck and pea pod and cucumber salad between plates. • Garnish duck with reserved coriander. Serve with nam chim dressing. Enjoy!
