The quickest way to make this salad is to buy a roast duck from your nearest Chinatown. Otherwise, roast a duck yourself (or roast one breast per person), which is actually just as easy as roasting a chicken.

Season the cavity of the duck and sit it on top of a few carrots and sliced onions in a roasting tray, breast down. Pour on half a cup of boiling water and season well. Roast at 180°C,
