Egg Noodles with Herbal Braised Duck

Method

1. 1 Marinate the duck legs with five-spice powder, ginger, and soy sauce for 1 hour.
2. 2 Fry the duck thighs until the skin is golden brown and fragrant, then remove them from the pan.
3. 3 Simmer the duck with soaked shiitake mushrooms, jujube dates, and goji berries for 60 minutes until the meat is tender and falls apart.
4. 4 Blanch the egg noodles until just cooked, drain well, and place in a bowl.
5. 5 Blanch the Chinese cabbage, arrange it with the duck leg on top of the noodles, then pour in the hot broth.

With an appliance

• Pressure cooker 55 min

  Replace step 3: simmer the fried duck leg with mushrooms, jujube, and goji berries under high pressure for 20 minutes, then release the pressure naturally for 12 minutes. The noodles and vegetables from steps 4 and 5 should still be blanched separately to prevent them from becoming mushy.
