Steps

  • Mix the marinade ingredients in a bowl, coat the duck, cover, and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
  • Soak 12 wooden bamboo skewers in cold water.
  • Mix 600g plain flour, strong flour, and salt in a bowl, then add 400ml boiling water.
  • Add 150ml cold water and knead the mixture into a smooth dough.
  • Heat rapeseed oil, sesame oil, peppers, and salt in a small pan, then remove from heat.
  • Roll out dough, spread with seasoned oil, scatter spring onions and remaining flour over it.
  • Cut dough into eight connected sections, fold each to the centre, roll out, and repeat folding.
  • Roll dough into a rectangle, then a 10cm wide cylinder, and divide into 12 small circles.
  • Cook pancakes in a pan with rapeseed oil until golden-brown and keep warm in the oven.
  • Heat a griddle pan, thread marinated duck onto skewers, and mix with 2 tablespoons oil.
  • Griddle the skewers for 1 minute per side until they no longer stick to the pan.
  • Assemble by spreading hoisin on pancakes and topping with lettuce, duck, sauces, and cucumber.
