• Return the pan to the heat. Add the chopped ginger and the syrup and cook over low heat for 1 minute. Increase the heat; add the hoisin and 2 tablespoons of water. Cook for 1 minute. Add the scallions and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes until the onions have wilted. Reduce the heat to very low to keep the sauce warm.
• Bring a large pan of salted water to a boil and drop in the glass noodles. Cook for 2 minutes, drain well, and spoon onto warmed serving plates. Slice the duck breast diagonally and arrange over the noodles. Spoon the ginger and hoisin sauce over the top.

Steps:

• 1. mix all the ingredients for the marinade together. Add the duck breasts and let marinate 8 hours or overnight. Remove the breasts from the marinade and reserve the marinade. Score the skin on the duck breasts. Add some oil to a pan and sear the duck breast until the fat has been rendered out of the duck and the skin gets crispy. Preheat oven 325 degrees. Place the duck in the oven and continue to cook for 10 minutes. Depending on how you like your duck cooked. Remove the breast and let rest 5 minutes
• 2. Cook the noodles according to package directions. Drain. Mix the cornstarch with the reserved marinade.
• 3. add the sesame oil to a large skillet. Add the mushrooms and cook until they are browned. Add the carrots and snow peas. Stir in the reserved marinade. Cook until thickened.
• 4. Cut the duck breast into slices. Place noodles in bowls. Top with the veggie sauce and place the duck on top.

Steps:

• Pre-heat oven to 160^C.
• Score the skin on the duck breasts around 1cm apart diagonally. In a large deep pan, at a medium-high heat lay the duck skin-side down (no oil required) and fry for 1-2 mins until skin is golden & bubbling. Turn the duck over to flesh side and sear for 1 min.
• Once the duck flesh has browned a little, take the pan off the heat and put in the oven (uncovered) for 10-12 mins, with the duck remaining skin-side up. Once cooked, remove pan from oven and rest duck while you cook the vegetables & noodles.
• Heat the olive oil in a Wok and add the courgette. Season with salt & coarse black pepper and cook until starting to soften.
• Add the mushrooms, a few generous shakes of Chinese five spice and a splash of soy sauce. Stir to coat and cook through for a couple of minutes.
• In a small saucepan, add the noodles and pour over boiling water to cover. Put on a medium/low heat and simmer until cooked through - this should take around 5 mins depending on pack instructions.
• Once noodles are cooked, drain off and lift a bunch out at a time to cut 4-5 inch strands into the wok with the vegetables. Add more Chinese five spice and soy sauce and mix well.
• Once the duck has rested, pour x2 tbsp of hoisin sauce over each duck breast, and turn on a low heat on the hob. Allow duck oils to heat back up, and rotate the breasts around the pan until all are covered in the sauce.
• Distribute noodles & veg onto pre-warmed plates (or large bowls) and drizzle with remaining hoisin sauce to your liking. Place the duck breasts on top. Add spring onions as a garnish on top. Also sprinkle some toasted sesame seeds if you wish!
