Method

  1. 1

    Score the duck skin in a crosshatch and season. Heat a dry frying pan over a medium heat and cook the duck skin-side down for 7-8 minutes until the fat has rendered and the skin is crisp.

  2. 2

    Turn and cook for 4-5 minutes more until no pink remains in the thickest part, then rest for 5 minutes and slice.

  3. 3

    Whisk the dashi stock powder into 1.2 litres water in a large pan, add the soy sauce and mirin and bring to a simmer with the leeks for 5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Cook the udon noodles in a separate pan of boiling water according to the pack, then drain and divide between four bowls.

  5. 5

    Ladle the broth and leeks over the noodles and top with the sliced duck to serve.
