Cooking Instructions

The protein cooking time listed in this recipe has been updated.

As of December 2025, we’ve revised cooking times for all our proteins to reflect improved food safety guidance.

Check out the latest recommended times in our Cooking Guidelines.

  1. Preheat the oven to 240C / fan 220C / gas mark 9. Bring a large saucepan filled with salted hot water to a boil. Add the noodles, gently separate with a fork, and boil for 3-4 mins until cooked. Drain, then rinse under cold water. Return to the pan and stir through 1/2 tsp oil to prevent sticking.
  2. Cut the carrot into matchsticks (peel optional). Cut the pak choi into bite-sized pieces. Halve the sugar snaps lengthways. Thinly slice the spring onions. Make the sauce; in a bowl, mix the miso, tamari, honey, vinegar, paprika and shichimi togarashi (to taste).
  3. Heat a medium frying pan on medium-high heat. Season the duck with sea salt and cook skin-side down for 4-5 mins, until crispy. Flip and cook for 1-2 mins. Transfer to a lined baking tray, skin-side up, and bake for 8-10 mins, until cooked through.
  4. Reheat the duck pan to medium-high heat. Add the sauce and bring to a boil, then remove from the heat. Once cooked, coat the duck with half the sauce. Leave to rest then thinly slice against the grain.
  5. Heat another large frying pan with 1 tbsp oil on medium-high heat. Add the pak choi, sugar snaps and carrot and cook for 2-3 mins, until softening. Add the cooked noodles, half the spring onions, the remaining sauce and 2-3 tbsp water. Cook for 2 mins, then set aside.
  6. Serve the noodles topped with the duck. Drizzle over any duck resting juices and garnish with the remaining spring onions.
