Before you start

  • Preheat the oven to 240C / fan 220C / gas mark 9
  • Line a baking tray with parchment paper
  • Bring a medium saucepan filled with salted water to a boil
  • Pull out a medium frying pan, a large bowl, a sieve & a measuring jug

Fry the duck

  • Heat the medium frying pan with 1 tsp oil on medium-high heat. Season the duck with salt. Once the pan is hot, add the duck and cook, skin-side down, for 4 mins, until crispy. Flip and cook for another 2 mins. Transfer to the lined baking tray, skin-side up, and roast for 18 mins

Make the sauce & cook the noodles

  • In the measuring jug, combine the cashew butter with 40ml hot water (20ml for 1 person) and mix until smooth. Add the tamari, half the chilli paste (use less for less heat), half the honey and the juice of half the lime. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Add a splash of water if it's too thick
  • Add the noodles to the saucepan, gently separate with a fork and boil for 6-7 mins, until cooked. Drain, then rinse under cold water and allow to drain

Prep & glaze the duck

  • Peel the shallot, keeping it whole, then thinly slice into rings and add to the large bowl with the juice of the remaining lime and a pinch of salt. Set aside to pickle
  • Peel and dice the mango into 1cm chunks. Slice the cucumber into 1cm half-moons. Finely chop the coriander
  • After 18 mins, add the remaining honey and remaining chilli paste (for those who like the heat) to the duck and turn to coat. Roast for a further 3 mins, until the duck is sticky and cooked through. Allow to rest for a few mins

Cook the mangetout

  • Meanwhile, reheat the frying pan to medium-high heat. Once hot, add the mangetout and cook for 3-4 mins, until charred and soft. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat and allow to cook for a few mins
  • When everything is ready, add the mango, cucumber, mangetout, noodles and half the coriander to the shallot with three-quarters of the satay dressing and toss to combine. Season to taste

Last bits & plate up

  • Slice the duck against the grain
  • Share the salad between bowls, topped with the duck and reserved spring onion and coriander. Drizzle with the remaining dressing and squeeze over the remaining lime juice
