Ingredients
- 2 Duck Breasts
- 2 Carrots
- 1 long red pepper
- 4 cloves garlic

Method
- Remove the fat from the duck. Trim any sinue. Find the direction of the grain. Thinly slice the duck in the opposite direction to which the grain is running. Set aside.

- Peel and slice the onion. Peel and dice the onion & garlic.
- Boil a pot of water. Salt it. When boiling add in the soba noodles. Cook under tender. Drain and plunge into ice-cold water immediately. Alternatively, run cold water over them. This stops them from overcooking.
- Heat the oil in the pan to medium heat, add in the aromatic ( onion, garlic, ginger) and allow to cook slowly for a few minutes. Turn up the heat and add in the duck. Turn up the heat and sear the duck, moving all the time for about 2/3 minutes.
- Add in the carrot and pepper. Cook for a few minutes. If it begins to stick add a few drops of water. This allows the vegetables to soften without having to add more oil and more calories.
- Add in the hoi sin, fish sauce and sesame oil. Stir together well.
