This recipe was inspired by Jamie Oliver's 15 minute meals, these take a bit longer than Jamie's buns did because it was my idea to stuff the buns with the duck. You could eat them plain ala Jamie, or stuff them with whatever mix you liked!

Steps

1

Season the duck breast with salt and pepper, sprinkle the Chinese 5spice over the skin side, place skin down in a hot non stick pan. Brown for 3 minutes on each side.
2

Remove the duck from the pan, slice the garlic and chilli and add to the pan. Slice the duck breast and add to the pan with the hoisin sauce untill duck lightly cooked.
3

Empty the ingredients in a dish, add the spring onion, finely chopped, shred the duck finely, mix well and set aside while you make the buns.
4

Empty the coconut milk into a bowl and keep the tin. Fill the tin twice with self raising flour and add to the milk. Add a pinch of salt and mix into a dough.
5

The dough will be quite sticky, so you need some flour for rolling, take a bun sized lump of dough, press a teaspoon of the duck mixture into the bun and roll in flour. Place the buns in a bamboo steamer and steam over a pan of simmering water for about 12 minutes. These amounts should make 6 buns which can also be frozen before steaming.

Eat while hot with the dipping sauce. I cooked extra duck and served the buns as a side with duck stir fry and rice.
