Ingredients
- 2 duck breast fillets (approx. 250 g each)
- 2 tbsp hoisin sauce
- 250 g rice noodles
- 1 mild red chili pepper
- 1 handful Thai basil
- 1 handful cilantro
- 6 leaves iceberg lettuce
- 16 sheets rice paper (Ø 22 cm)
- 1 lime (juice)
Instructions
- 1. Preheat the oven to 120 degrees Celsius. Set the heating mode to top and bottom heat.
- 2. Rinse the duck under running water. Pat it completely dry with a kitchen towel. Cut a diamond pattern into the skin. Place the duck skin-side down in a hot pan. Fry it for four to five minutes until the skin is golden brown. Turn the duck. Place it on a rack in the oven. Place a fat tray under the rack. Brush the skin with hoisin sauce. Bake the duck in the oven for about 30 minutes. The duck should be pink inside.
- 3. Cook the rice noodles according to the instructions on the package. Pour the noodles into a colander. Rinse them with cold water. Let the noodles drain in the colander.
- 4. Wash the peppers. Cut them in half. Remove the seeds. Slice the peppers into thin strips. Rinse the herbs under water. Shake them dry. Pluck the leaves from the stems. Tear the coriander leaves into smaller pieces. Wash the lettuce. Prepare it. Spin it dry. Tear the lettuce into bite-sized pieces.
- 5. Remove the duck from the oven. Let it rest for a few minutes. Slice the duck into thin slices.
- 6. Fill a shallow dish with water. The dish should be slightly larger than the rice paper sheets. Place a kitchen towel next to the dish. Have a second kitchen towel ready. Dip one rice paper sheet into the water individually. Let it soak for about one minute. Carefully lay the soft sheet on the first towel. Pat it dry with the second towel.
- 7. Lay the soft rice paper sheets flat. Distribute all prepared ingredients in the center of the sheets. Add some lime juice. Fold the sides of the paper towards the center. Roll the sheets tightly.
- 8. Serve the rolls with a soy-chili-sesame sauce if desired.
