Duck was a bit dry, but the chutney was delicious.

Amazing recipe! The duck was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the chutney was the perfect accompaniment. Will definitely be making this again.

This duck recipe was a hit at our dinner party! The five-spice marinade infused the duck with incredible flavor, and the honeyed mango chutney added a sweet and tangy balance. The instructions were easy to follow, and the result was fall-off-the-bone
