Ingredients: 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper; 1 tablespoon light soy sauce; 1/2 tablespoon fish sauce; 1 teaspoon sesame oil; 2 duck breasts, skin on; 2 tablespoons vegetable oil; 1/2 cup of Vietnamese green tea; 1/2 cup brown sugar; 1/2 cup of jasmine rice grain; 1 cassia bark stick; 2 star anise; 2 spring onion, thinly sliced on diagonal; 2 long chiles, julienned; 2 baguettes; Handful fresh coriander (cilantro) leaves; Light soy sauce and chile, for dipping

Directions

In a large mixing bowl, combine pepper, light soy sauce, fish sauce, and sesame oil. Stir and coat the duck and marinate for 30 minutes. Bring a fry pan to medium heat, add oil, then sear and brown the duck breasts skin-side down for 3 minutes. Remove and set aside.
Place some foil in a wok, add green tea, sugar, rice grains, cassia bark, and star anise. Place a wire rack in the wok and cover.
Turn heat to high until the wok begins to smoke. Now add the duck breasts skin-side up and reduce the heat to medium. Cover then allow to smoke.
Turn off heat and allow the duck to rest in the wok for a further 5 minutes.
Thinly slice the breasts, garnish with a combination of spring onions, chile, and coriander.
Serve with baguette and soy/chile dipping sauce.
