📜This recipe will feed 2.

🔹Ingredients:🔹
- 1 duck breast
- 1 tbsp China spice mix
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper

🔹Preparation:🔹
1. With a sharp knife, score the skin of the duck breast. Don't use too much pressure, so you don't damage the skin.
2. Season the duck breast on all sides with your china spice mix, salt and pepper.
3. Plate the duck breast into a cold pan and turn on medium high heat. As the fat between the skin and flesh starts to render, drain it away into a ramekin bit by bit. Duck fat is considered liquid gold in cooking and you can use it for other dishes. 
4.When the skin is crispy but not burnt and the flesh changes colour on the sides, flip it.  Lower the heat to medium, leave for about 3 minutes. After turn it on its sides for 30 seconds to a minute each. Place the breast skin side down and cover it with a lid for another 5 minutes.
5. When it hits 54°C, take it out, let it rest for 10 minutes.
6. After resting, slice diagonally against the grain and serve with your favourite side dish.

Tip: Duck goes well with rice, potatoes and red cabbage, roasted potatoes...
