This is a great curry recipe and one that I will be making again for sure. I have never used duck in a curry before and this was a wonderful way to prepare it. I did ours with whole duck breasts, which I cooked skin side down first to render the fat and then finished them off breast side down in the sauce and they were cooked perfectly. I sliced the breasts and served over rice topped with the wonderful curry sauce. I am the first person to review this recipe and I have not made any changes to the original recipe but to view this recipe please click here.

This is also one of the recipes I made for my Asian night, again this is an excellent recipe and the chili, lime, mayonnaise goes exceptionally well with these little gems. All the recipes I made that night were very easy to prepare and did not take long to make. The biggest time consumer was getting all the veg and herbs chopped ready to make each recipe. I chose to do that all first along with making all the dipping sauces to save myself time. I will admit though I had help this time from my hubby helping to crush garlic and to wash up all my messy dishes as I like to do that as I go along so that saved a lot of time for me.
