Roasted Duck Breast

The first Recipe will be this very simple dish, and it tastes soooo good, you can see the photo of the food at the banner of my blog. I use this as the banner picture as it is one of my favorites, so yummy!

It is so simple to make and takes only 30 minutes to cook.

Ingredients: You just need a piece of good Duck Breast, good soya sauce (I use Kikkoman), green mixed salad, good olive oil, cooking oil to roast the duck and lemon.

Method:
1. First, prepare the salad, wash and cut them in small pieces, just as you wish to make it easier to eat. Mix 1 table spoon of soya sauce, 3/4 table spoon of olive oil and 1 table spoon of lemon juice then poor over the salad. Toss well and leave aside. 
2. Heat a pan with oil at high temperature till hot, place the duck breast on the pan, cook the skin side first till it turns golden, then turn and cook till it also is light golden. 
Reduce the heat, continue to cook each side around 10-15 minutes till it is just cooked, depends on the thick of the duck breast. Turn the hop off, poor 1 table spoon of soya sauce on the duck breast and leave the duck breast there for another 5 minutes. 
Then cut in to thin slices, arrange on the plate with salad and poor more soya sauce on top as you wish.

Enjoy your meal!

Tip: The oil must be very hot when you place the duck breast on the pan, so the outside will be cooked first at hight temperature, and after that, reduce the heat to cook inside, to stop the juice running out, to make sure your meat is cooked but still juicy. You can adjust the amount of soya sauce, oil and lemon juice according to your taste.
My secret is that, I never follow the Recipe, just follow my taste, that is why I love my food (there are exceptions, of course, like when you make bread, following the recipe is a must). Happy cooking!


Hope I will have time to try the new dish and share here soon!
