A delicious Braised Duck with Pickled Mustard Greens recipe.

Cut half a free-range duck into medium pieces. Place in cold water with a few slices of ginger, salt, and Shaoxing wine. Bring to a boil to blanch and remove impurities. Prepare one pack of pickled mustard greens.

Add oil to cover a quarter of the wok bottom (free-range duck renders quite a bit of fat; if using other duck breeds, add slightly more oil). Swirl to coat, then add 7 slices of ginger. Transfer the blanched duck pieces into the wok one by one. Add 5g sugar, 1 tbsp light soy sauce, 0.5 tbsp dark soy sauce, 2 tbsp Shaoxing wine, and the pack of pickled mustard greens. Set the smart cooker to ‘Stir-fry’ mode (default 4 minutes) and start cooking.

When the timer sounds, open the lid and add a large bowl of boiling water (about 3/4 full). Switch to ‘Braise’ mode (default 20 minutes) and start braising.
