Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Heat a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the sliced raw duck meat and stir-fry for about 4-5 minutes until the pink color disappears. Thoroughly cooking until the red hue is gone is the first step to eliminating any gamey smell.
Step 2
Don’t discard the duck fat that renders while cooking! This fat adds flavor and will be used later to sauté the vegetables and sauce. You’ll hear a delicious sizzling sound.
Step 3
Add all the pre-mixed special sauce ingredients to the stir-fried duck. Increase the heat to high and stir-fry quickly for about 3 minutes. It’s important to stir constantly to ensure the sauce coats the duck evenly.
Step 4
Once the sauce is well incorporated, add the rice cakes, shredded cabbage, and thickly sliced green onions. Continue to stir-fry for another 3 minutes. The vegetables will soften slightly, and the flavors will begin to meld beautifully with the duck.
Step 5
Finally, add the trimmed enoki mushrooms and the cut chives. Stir-fry briskly, tossing everything together. Be careful not to overcook the mushrooms and chives as they cook very quickly. Drizzle with sesame oil just before turning off the heat for a final aromatic touch!
Step 6
Your delicious-looking stir-fried duck, glossy and appetizing, is now ready! Enjoy it with freshly steamed rice, or wrap it in fresh lettuce leaves for a delightful bite. Savor this tender and flavorful duck jumulleok, perfectly free of any gamey taste!
