Thai Red Duck Curry
This is a lovely Thai Red Duck Curry and very easy and quick to make once you have the red curry paste. We make the paste in a triple batch and then freeze it, so we always have some when we need it.Most of the ingredients can be found in larger supermarkets although I still prefer to go to my local Asian shops, I always love to see what other ingredients they have.
Method
- Setup your Egg for a direct cook at 180°C with the stainless grid and a cast iron skillet.
- Score the fat on your duck breasts in 5mm squares.
- Place the duck breasts fat side down into your dry cast-iron skillet.
- Cook for 5 minutes and then turn and cook for 3 further minutes.
- Set aside to rest.
- Now setup your Egg for a direct cook using the EGGspander basket and wok, still at 180-200°C.
- Pour your oil into the wok and add the red curry paste. Cook for 1 minute, stirring as it cooks.
- Add 1/3 of the coconut milk (the thicker part) and stir for another minute.
- Now add the palm sugar and allow it to dissolve.
- Now add the remaining coconut milk, chicken stock, fish sauce, snake beans, pepper, lime leaves, ginger, and tomatoes and cook for 3 or 4 minutes.
