2. Add the duck pieces to the pan and stir-fry for a further 2 minutes, until the meat begins to brown.

3. Stir in the chili flakes, fish sauce, soy sauce and 120ml/1/2 cup water.

4. Add the broccoli florets and continue to stir-fry the mixture over a medium heat for about 2 minutes, until the duck pieces are just cooked through.

5. Serve immediately on warmed plates, garnished with sprigs of coriander and sesame seeds.

Note: This recipe is intended for game birds, as farmed duck would usually have too much fat. If you do use farmed duck, you should remove the skin and fat layer, before cooking.

Cook's Tip: Large wok lids are cumbersome and con be difficult to store in a small kitchen. If you need to cover a wok it may be easier to just place a circle of baking parchment against the food surface to keep cooking juices in.
