Best 6 Braised Duck With Glutinous Rice Recipes

SINGAPOREAN BRAISED DUCK

Steps:

• Trim the duck of any visible excess fat, especially from the tail area. Mix together the salt and five-spice powder, and season the duck all over, including inside the cavity, and marinate, refrigerated, for 2 hours or overnight. Rinse the duck with fresh water inside and out.
• Place a large wok or Dutch oven over medium heat, and add the sugar. After it liquefies, watch it carefully as it caramelizes to a medium brown, swirling the pot occasionally to help it color evenly. Add the star anise, garlic and ginger, and stir to coat in the caramel, and to keep the caramel cooking until it's a dark brown, but not burned. Stir in 1 cup of water to dissolve the caramel, then add the kecap manis.
• Add duck, breast side up, then add water to come up halfway, submerging the legs. Raise the heat to bring the liquid to a boil, then turn the heat down to a very gentle simmer, just barely bubbling.
• Cook for 15 minutes, then carefully flip the duck so the breast side is down. Cook 15 minutes, then flip again. Taste the liquid, and add salt or more kecap manis to taste. Cook 15 minutes, then flip so the breast side is down again. Cook another 5 to 15 minutes, until the breast is cooked to your liking. Traditionally it should be cooked through, but Tan's spin is to remove the duck when the breast meat is 135 to 140 degrees, or medium. To use a traditional test, poke a chopstick in the thickest parts of the duck thigh and breast; if it goes through without too much resistance, it's done.
• Remove the duck to a platter or cutting board, and tent with foil. Let it rest for 10 minutes. Add the tofu and eggs to the sauce, and simmer them gently for 10 minutes, until stained and hot. Skim the sauce of any floating fat if necessary, and serve it all with rice and chile sauce.

BRAISED DUCK WITH RED CURRY

Steps:

• Bone ducks and remove the skin. (You can ask a butcher to do this, reserving the carcass for stock making and skin for rendering.) Cut breasts in half, then into about 3 pieces across the width. Chop legs and thighs into about 4 pieces each. (Remember: You want to start with generous pieces of meat, since they will shrink when cooked. Don't worry about cleaning the tendons, since they will soften with long cooking.) Sprinkle meat with salt and pepper.
• Heat rendered fat in a large, heavy bottomed Dutch oven over high heat. Brown duck on all sides, then transfer meat to a platter. Reduce heat to medium low and cook shallots until well browned, about 15 minutes. Add garlic and ginger, increase heat to medium high and cook about a minute, then add curry paste. Cook, stirring constantly, about 3 minutes. Return duck meat to pot along with brown duck stock and cook at a slow simmer, uncovered, until meat is tender, about 40 minutes.
• With a slotted spoon, transfer meat to a platter and reserve in a warm place. Puree sauce in a blender and strain back into pot. Cook over high heat until liquid is reduced by one third. Stir in fish sauce, coconut milk, sugar, and lime juice, and remove from heat. Stir duck back into warm sauce. Ladle stew over Jasmine Rice. Garnish with remaining ingredients and serve immediately.

BRAISED DUCK OVER RICE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325 degrees. Place a large sauté pan over medium high heat. Add 1 tablespoon oil. Season duck pieces with salt and pepper to taste, and lay skin-down in the pan. Brown well on both sides, turning once. Drain off fat and return pan to heat. Add riesling and bring to a boil. Add soy sauce, 1/2 cup water, 1 clove garlic, ginger and sugar. Return to a boil, cover, and place in oven. Braise until meat is very tender, turning every 30 minutes, about 1 1/2 hours. Remove pan from oven, and let meat cool in pan.
• In a medium saucepan, bring 2 1/2 cups lightly salted water to a boil. Stir in rice, cover, and reduce heat to very low so water barely simmers. Cook until water is absorbed, then uncover and stir. Meanwhile, transfer duck to a plate, reserving sauce. (There should be about 1 cup of sauce; if necessary, add chicken broth to thin as desired.) Discard duck skin and fat. Pull meat from bones, pulling it or cutting it into small slivers.
• Place a large sauté pan over medium-high heat, and add remaining oil. Add remaining garlic, peppers (use 2 for mild heat, 3 for spicy), lemon grass and carrots. Sauté for 1 minute. Add duck, stirring to crisp edges. Add 1/4 cup of reserved sauce. Reduce until mixture is sticky. Mix in scallions.
• To serve, pile rice into four serving bowls, and top with duck and some of the remaining sauce. Sprinkle with cilantro, and serve.
