Ingredients:
1 cup flour |
pinch salt and white cracked pepper |
2 eggs |
2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds |
1 cup milk |
1 scallion, white and green parts, finely chopped |
4 duck legs |
salt and pepper |
4 sprigs fresh thyme |
4 garlic cloves |
2 cups vegetable oil |
1 carrot, julienned |
1 scallion, white and green parts, finely chopped |
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves |
1 tablespoon fresh grated ginger |
1 tablespoon minced garlic |
1 tablespoon white sesame seeds |
1/2 teaspoon chile paste |
1 tablespoon sesame oil |
salt and white pepper |
egg wash |
Directions:
1. Crepe Batter:
2. To prepare the pancakes: In a bowl or blender, combine flour, salt, eggs, and sesame seeds. Gradually whisk in the milk, the batter should be lump free and the consistency of heavy cream. Add a little water to thin out if necessary. Fold in chopped scallions.
3. Coat a 6 or 8-inch skillet with peanut oil or non-stick spray and place over medium heat. Ladle about 2 tablespoons of the batter into the pan and swirl around so it covers the bottom; pour back any excess. The batter will dry before your eyes. Cook for 1 minute until lightly golden but not crisp, then flip over. Remove the pancake to a platter and repeat until all the batter is used.
4. Confit:
5. To prepare the confit: Preheat oven to 200 degrees F.
6. Arrange the duck legs in a single layer in a high-sided baking pan. Season the duck heavily with salt and pepper, toss in thyme and garlic. Pour oil over the duck and bake for 2 to 3 hours. Remove the duck from the fat, shred the meat from the bones and set in a bowl.
7. Filling:
8. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
9. Combine the shredded duck meat with carrot, scallion, thyme, ginger, garlic, sesame seeds, chile paste and sesame oil; season with salt and pepper. Lay a small amount of the filling in the scallion pancake and roll up. Arrange them on a baking sheet, brush with egg wash, and bake for 10 minutes.
