Auntie Emilys Kitchen-Almost Peking Duck

"Almost" Peking Duck 簡易片皮鴨

“Almost” Peking Duck is a dish that I came up with to satisfy my craving for the “real” Peking Duck.
If you can’t find Peking Duck wrappers, you can use steamed buns, deep-fried shrimp chips, toast, or even just lettuce.
Additional sides and condiments….
• preserved vegetables
• thousand year old eggs
• roasted garlic
• pickled ginger
• sliced Asian pear
Save the bones to make a tasty congee or tofu soup.

  • Remove the breast meat from the bone. Try not to tear any of the meat. Set the breast meat aside

  • Slice the leg meat and other pieces of meat and skin to suitable sizes
  • Place the leg meat and other parts that are not as attractive on the bottom of the serving plate
  • Place the breast meat on top of the leg meat
  • Clean and slice a long English cucumber and arrange it around the duck meat I do this cover up the unattractive meat under the breast meat. And I also like to add lots of cucumbers with the duck wrap
  • Wash and slice the green onions into thin pieces You can soak them in water to make them curly and less pungent. You can also cut the whites of the green onions into 3cm pieces and then cut 1cm slits on both ends, soak in water to make the ends curl
  • Steam the wrappers as per the instructions on the packaging
