A Recipe for
Gambler's Duck B1
There are three possible parts to a date, of which at least two must be offered: entertainment, food, and affection. It is customary to begin a series of dates with a great deal of entertainment, a moderate amount of food, and the merest suggestion of affection. As the amount of affection increases, the entertainment can be reduced proportionately. When the affection IS the entertainment, we no longer call it dating. Under no circumstances can the food be omitted. |

Food Tip |
Remove the duck's innards and clean it. Smear the duck with ginger and
minced onion. Steam in a large pot for 3 hours. Remove the duck. Heat
the cooking oil in a wok until it is very hot and carefully insert
duck. Fry for 10 minutes or until golden brown and crisp to the
touch. Carve the duck into bite-size pieces and place onto steamed
pancakes with spring onion, cucumber slices, and plum sauce.
