Instructions

  1. 1

    Clean and pat the duck dry thoroughly, then prick the skin lightly with a fork.

  2. 2

    Mix honey, soy sauce, black vinegar, and five-spice, brush over the duck, and air-dry in the fridge for at least 8 hours.

  3. 3

    Preheat oven to 200C, roast the duck on a rack for 20 minutes, then reduce to 180C and roast 45-50 minutes more.

  4. 4

    Drain rendered fat midway and turn once to brown the skin evenly.

  5. 5

    Rest the roasted duck for 10 minutes, then slice thinly.

  6. 6

    Spread hoisin on pancakes, add duck slices, scallion, and cucumber, then roll and serve.

Tips

For crispier skin, remove as much surface moisture as possible before roasting.
Air-drying the duck on a rack improves both color and texture.
