Thai crimson duck curry
I lately loved a wonderful Thai crimson duck curry at one among my favorite Thai eating places right here in Sydney, Khao Pla in Chatswood, and it impressed me to make my very own. The wealthy flavour of duck meat, with the crimson curry sauce, the burst of candy juice from the lychees and freshness from the herbs is a type of consuming experiences that I hope everybody tries not less than as soon as of their life!
Plus, as a lot as I really like my dependable Rooster Crimson Curry, duck is particular. I’ve all the time considered it as a luxurious merchandise and I really like that duck meat is extra readily accessible at grocery retailer as of late. Whereas it’s dearer than hen, making Duck Curry at residence prices, by tough calculations, round 70% cheaper than at a pleasant Thai restaurant the place small bowl can fetch upwards of $30.
Elements in Thai Crimson Duck Curry
Right here’s what you could make duck curry. This recipe requires 3 duck breasts totalling 500g/1 lb which makes sufficient curry to serve 4 to five folks.
1. Duck breast
I’ve eaten and seen duck curry recipes made with all types of cuts – entire duck, Marylands (thigh and bone) and breast. Some recipe begin with a cooked Chinese language BBQ duck whereas others use a confit methodology, and a few steam/roast/then fry the duck.
I’ve opted for duck breast – straightforward to prepare dinner, comparatively straightforward to get and since I like biting into the wealthy tender slices of duck smothered within the curry sauce.
The place to search out duck breast – Nowadays in Australia it’s pretty widespread at massive grocery shops in addition to contemporary produce shops and butchers. Search for pores and skin on boneless breast. It prices greater than hen (~$18 for 500g / 1 lb), but it surely’s particular! A luxurious product reserved for Thai royalty! (So I’m advised by a Thai chef who helped out at RTM a few weeks in the past 😊)
See FAQ for different duck cuts I’ve seen used, and why I didn’t go for them for this recipe.
2. Lychees or pineapples!
To me, lychees are further particular as a result of the season is so fleeting and I really like how the pearly white balls look towards the crimson curry. Nonetheless, I’d by no means hesitate to make use of pineapple as an alternative – ideally contemporary, else canned.
And – tip for you – Asian branded lychees are literally very, superb! I used to be taken unexpectedly.
3. thai crimson curry sauce
You should use do-it-yourself crimson curry paste or retailer purchased, which is what I’ve opted for. If utilizing do-it-yourself, you’ll need somewhat further fish sauce (as a result of retailer purchased is effectively seasoned already).
-
Crimson curry paste – It’s fairly effectively doc on this web site: Maesri is my most well-liked! Least expensive and most genuine flavour of manufacturers you’ll find at (most) grocery shops with out digging at nighttime corners of Asian shops. I additionally like that one can(115g / 1/2 cup) is the proper quantity to make a curry utilizing 1 can of coconut milk.
Discover it at massive grocery shops right here in Australia (Coles, Woolies, Harris Farms) and in Asian shops (it’s a staple merchandise).
-
Garlic and ginger – Including these provides the shop purchased curry paste a freshness increase to make it extra like do-it-yourself crimson curry paste. It actually makes a distinction! (Be aware: ordinarily I exploit lemongrass however I didn’t really feel it added a lot in duck curry as a result of duck meat is richer in flavour than hen. So I ended up taking it out of the components.)
-
Coconut milk – Not all coconut milk is created equal! Good ones are made with 85%+ coconut so have higher flavour. Economical ones are diluted with water. Ayam is my default (89% coconut). Full fats please! Low fats is thinner and has much less coconut flavour.
-
Makrut lime leaves – For genuine Thai curry flavour! Imparts a particular earthy/herby contemporary lime flavour into sauces. Pretty accessible as of late at massive grocery shops and Asian shops. They freeze 100% completely which is useful. (Be aware: previously often called kaffir lime leaves. The identify has been modified resulting from racial associations.) See FAQ for makes use of for leftover lime leaves. Can’t discover contemporary? Nonetheless value making with dried! Although it’s value making a little bit of effort to search out contemporary.
-
Fish sauce – That is used because the salt in crimson curry. Extra flavour than plain salt!
-
Sugar – For the correct contact of sweetness you discover in crimson curry sauce.
4. herbs and beans
Thai basil is the traditional herb used for Thai cooking, however you possibly can substitute with common basil. The beans will also be substituted with different greens – I selected it for color and form.
-
Crimson chilli – For non-obligatory garnish. Use massive ones for much less warmth and small Birds Eye or Thai Chillis in case you are a spice monster (or declare you might be).
-
Thai basil – A traditional contemporary herb utilized in Thai cooking, it tastes like common basil with a barely stronger aniseed and barely minty flavour. These days it’s pretty broadly out there in Australia in massive grocery shops and inexperienced grocers (Coles, Woolies, Harris Farms), however a lot better worth in Asian shops! Substitute with common basil (I’ve completed so and it’s nonetheless firm worthy).
-
Coriander/cilantro – For garnish, Not very important!
-
Inexperienced beans – I selected this as I assumed the inexperienced color would look good within the crimson sauce. Snake beans (Asian lengthy beans) are additionally on level, although truly, you should utilize any vegetable you need that you simply assume will work with crimson curry sauce. Cherry tomatoes appears widespread however I really feel like with lychees, it’s a whole lot of same-same shiny balls floating in a single dish!
Tips on how to make Thai Crimson Duck Curry
This duck curry recipe is definitely very easy and has a pleasant workflow to it. When you begin cooking, you possibly can have it on the desk in half-hour:
-
Duck breast – pan seared to render the fats and crisp the pores and skin (10 minutes), completed within the oven (8 minutes) then rested (5 minutes) earlier than slicing.
-
Crimson curry sauce – prep the components whereas the duck is within the pan (it’s fingers off), then begin the sauce and have it simmering whereas the duck is within the oven.
-
Serve – the sauce and duck needs to be prepared across the identical time, able to plate up and serve!
1. cooking the duck breast
Each duck and hen are poultry, however duck is structurally completely different. Due to this, duck breast cooked to medium uncommon is sort of a lovely steak – tender, wealthy and juicy. Then again, we’d by no means eat hen breast medium uncommon. Chewy! Rubbery!
Be aware: full duck breast cooking explanations received prolonged, so I moved it to a separate submit. I determine it is going to be useful for future use! See Tips on how to Prepare dinner Duck Breast.
-
Slash pores and skin – Use a pointy knife to make 5 to six diagonal slashes throughout the pores and skin of the duck, taking care to not reduce into the pink flesh. Don’t reduce from edge-to-edge, you need the pores and skin to remain in a single piece however simply make slashes within the center.
Then pat the pores and skin dry with paper towels and sprinkle salt and pepper on each side.
-
COLD pan with NO OIL – Don’t flip the range on but. Place the duck pores and skin facet down in an unheated oven-proof pan with none oil. The pan may be forged iron, non-stick, or an everyday pan.
-
Crush for flat pores and skin – Place one other pan on prime of the duck to weigh it down, not a forged iron one although, it’s somewhat too heavy. That is to forestall the pores and skin from curling and wrinkling.
-
Prepare dinner on low 10 minutes – Now you possibly can flip the range on! Low if it’s a powerful range, or medium low if it’s a weak burner. The extra slowly you prepare dinner the duck, the extra fats you’ll render out which implies crispier pores and skin. It’s low upkeep too, as a result of it’s low warmth.
-
Fats begins to render – After a couple of minutes, take a peek and also you’ll see fats has began to soften out of the duck.
-
A lot duck fats! At across the 5 to 7 minute mark, the whole pan shall be lined in duck fats.
Hold the pan weight on till across the 7 minute mark when the pores and skin has began to go golden and has “set”. Whereas it’s nonetheless gentle, it might nonetheless wrinkle/curl = rubbery patches = 😭
-
Golden crispy pores and skin! Hold cooking till the pores and skin as a result of golden and crispy, across the 10 minute mark, or longer. You’ll be able to flip the warmth up in the direction of the top, as soon as there’s a number of fats within the pan.
-
End in oven – When the pores and skin is golden, flip and prepare dinner the flesh facet for simply 1 minute to seal. Then switch the pan to at 180°C/350°F oven (160°C fan-forced) and roast for 8 minutes or till the inner temperature is 60°C/140°F which is medium ie. mild blush of pink. For medium uncommon (deep pink, like steak), goal for 54°C/130°F (6 minutes).
Don’t fear if you happen to go over, duck breast is nice even totally cooked to 68°C/154.4°F (ie no pink in any respect, like hen breast). Assume – Chinese language BBQ duck. Absolutely cooked, and scrumptious!
-
Relaxation – Then place the duck on a rack set over a plate, or only a plate, and depart it uncovered to relaxation for not less than 5 minutes when you end the sauce.
-
Slice the duck breast simply shy of 5mm / 0.2″ thick. Do that simply earlier than putting it within the curry sauce. It might probably relaxation for effectively past 5 minutes as a result of the flesh warms up as soon as positioned within the scorching sauce.
2. crimson curry sauce
The important thing step right here is to prepare dinner off the curry paste, whether or not utilizing do-it-yourself or retailer purchased. It makes an enormous distinction to enhance flavour. In the event you simply stir it into liquid, the flavour is so unimpressive!
-
Prepare dinner off curry paste – Sauté the curry paste with the ginger and garlic for 4 to five minutes over medium warmth. The curry paste shall be fairly moist at first however will dry out and deepen in color which improves the flavour of the curry sauce.
-
Sauce – Add the hen inventory first and simmer to scale back by half. Then add the coconut milk, fish sauce, sugar and lime leaves (crush in fingers to launch flavour). Stir to mix then simmer for two minutes.
-
Inexperienced beans (or different veg) – Add the beans and simmer for 3 minutes till they’re nearly tender. (If utilizing different greens, add them in based mostly on the prepare dinner time).
-
Lychees or pineapples – Then stir the lychees or pineapple in and simmer for simply 1 minute simply to heat it although quite than prepare dinner it till gentle. And simply earlier than serving, stir the Thai Basil leaves in (it wilts shortly and, like common basil, darkens in color with extended publicity to warmth).
-
Plating up – Although we’re not aiming for tremendous crispy duck pores and skin on this dish, I nonetheless wish to serve it with a lot of the pores and skin above the sauce line as a result of it will get much less soggy than stirring it although. Visible function as effectively.
So I put a little bit of sauce within the base of a serving bowl then lay the duck breast on prime, fanning the slices out barely to show the gorgeous pink flesh. Then I spoon the remainder of the curry sauce, lychees and many others across the duck breast. Or, I gently place the sliced duck into the pan with the sauce in it, as pictured beneath.
-
Garnishes and serve! As with many South East Asian dishes, garnishes not solely add beautiful color but in addition further flavour! Further Thai basil, coriander/cilantro and slices of crimson chilli.
Have a look at it. It’s so lovely! A riot of color, the unmissable pearly balls for lychees, the golden duck pores and skin peeking out above the crimson coconut curry sauce, and the trace of pink flesh on present which screams “I’m so tender and juicy, no dry duck right here!!”.
Take it to the desk with delight together with jasmine rice that you simply steamed earlier (regardless of a sure meals blogger not together with that instruction as step 1). Gesture grandly* and stand again for a second to offer your viewers time to reward and lavish you with exclamations of appreciation earlier than graciously permitting folks to dig in! – Nagi x

FAQ – Thai Crimson Duck Curry
This duck curry is predicated on my Thai Crimson Curry recipe, impressed by Khao Pla’s Duck Curry and the Thai Crimson Duck Curry with Lychees in Tony Tan’s lovely new cookbook Tony Tan’s Asian Cooking Class.
Sure, duck curry is an actual dish in Thailand. It’s mentioned to have been served to royalty which appears becoming to me as a result of I all the time consider duck as a luxurious meat! I discover that many recipes from Thai nationals begin with “roasted duck” which is a bit obscure, and others use Chinese language BBQ duck.
I opted to start out with uncooked duck breast so everyone making this recipe has a constant consequence!
Pineapple appears to be the extra widespread alternative although right here in Australia, the lychee model is taken into account a delicacy and since we’re on the tail finish of lychee season, that’s what I’ve opted for. As for different add ins, cherry tomatoes is widespread (I selected to not, as a result of lychees are additionally spherical = so many balls!) and Asian eggplant is all the time a favorite (wonderful sponge for sauce!).
In concept it will however there are additionally drawbacks. Firstly, duck pores and skin is thicker than hen pores and skin. I do loads of hen dishes the place I sear the bone-in hen pores and skin in a pan then ending cooking the hen within the sauce (French Fricassee, Kuku Paka Coconut Rooster Stew) and it really works superbly. The pores and skin does get soggy but it surely’s good to eat.
Duck pores and skin, however, will get fairly rubbery when braised. You continue to have to prepare dinner it individually – or not less than prepare dinner it to take away the surplus fats and prepare dinner the pores and skin so it’s not rubbery earlier than braising it within the curry sauce. Which is why some whole-duck recipes name for steaming first earlier than chopping and deep frying then stirred into sauces. And different duck curry recipes name for utilizing a complete pre-cooked Chinese language roast duck.
The opposite answer could be to take away the duck pores and skin earlier than cooking – however you’d lose a lot flavour!!
So primarily, I’m doing the previous right here – cooking the duck via completely then serving with the sauce. I contemplated doing a Duck confit the place duck is sluggish cooked for hours buried in duck fats so the flesh is meltingly tender, then roasted to crisp the pores and skin. Then I deliberate to shred the flesh and stir via the curry sauce.
However actually, that’s much more effort, time and price. Plus I actually like biting into the bigger items of blushing pink slices of breast – it’s tender and juicy and wealthy and simply fabulous!!!
So do I! At all times!
The pores and skin shouldn’t be crispy on this dish in Thailand or at eating places as a result of the duck is completely stirred into the curry. With mine, I’m going to a little bit of effort to guard the pores and skin by putting slices on prime of the curry quite than simmering it in (brief simmer time doesn’t do a lot for flavour absorption by the duck items, and we will’t prepare dinner for a very long time as a result of the duck will overcook).
The practicality of this dish is that we’re coping with a saucy curry, and crispy pores and skin and sauce will not be pals. Particularly skinny crispy pores and skin, like duck. Thick pork crackling can take a little bit of sauce with out going soggy. However extra fragile crispy pores and skin, like duck and, say, salmon pores and skin, can not. Which is why you all the time see sauces and purees served below crispy pores and skin fish and duck at fancy eating places.
So, the pores and skin is crispy when freshly cooked – which isn’t a lot the aim for this specific recipe as it’s the by product of rendering out the thick layer of fats below the pores and skin (it’s simply an excessive amount of fats, we don’t wish to eat that). However by the point the duck is rested, sliced and positioned within the sauce (which creates a steamy surroundings for the fragile pores and skin), it isn’t crispy, crispy.
It’s not the aim. Not for this curry. Belief me, you received’t miss it.
Although, in case you are completely decided to have crispy pores and skin, I’d recommend serving the duck breast and curry sauce individually, and watch out to time it so the sauce is prepared as soon as the duck has rested for five minutes, at which level the pores and skin remains to be beautiful and crispy.
There’s no strict guidelines or conventional reduce utilized in Thailand for duck curry. I’ve seen some recipes name for getting a complete cooked Chinese language BBQ duck, chopping up the meat then tossing it into the sauce. Yum – however I needed to make the duck from scratch.
Others recipes prepare dinner a complete duck from scratch. At eating places, I’ve had it served with entire roasted marylands (thigh and leg connected), in addition to with chopped/sliced items. I’ve additionally had duck curry with shredded duck meat (I feel it was leg).
I opted to keep away from cooking a complete duck to scale back the work, and likewise I couldn’t see myself making a batch massive sufficient to make use of all of the duck meat.
As for marylands, I did take into account this however to be trustworthy, utilizing breast was simpler. No bone to fret about eradicating the flesh off, and it cooks sooner.
So breast it’s!
3 – 4 days within the fridge, and YES it freezes effectively! Thaw then gently reheat so that you don’t overcook the duck.

Recipe Notes:
1. Duck breast – Pretty available at massive grocery shops as of late, plus butchers. Additionally see How To Prepare dinner Duck Breast for extra detailed data on the why of the duck breast cooking methodology.
I exploit 3 breasts as a result of 2 shouldn’t be fairly sufficient meat for the quantity of sauce which makes a amount based mostly on a neat 1 can of coconut milk and 1 can of Maesri curry paste (Be aware 2).
2. Curry paste – My place on the perfect retailer purchased Thai crimson curry is pretty effectively documented on this web site! Maesri is the perfect – there may be simply no query, not less than, for available ones. Discover it at Woolies, Harris Farms, Asian shops and on-line (Australia). (Abroad – Amazon and Asian shops).
3. Grating – Use a microplane or just like grate it finely so it mixes in rather well with the curry paste. Spruces up retailer purchased paste to make it style like do-it-yourself.
4. Coconut milk – Not all coconut milk is created equal! Good ones are made with 85%+ coconut so have higher flavour. Economical ones are diluted with water. Ayam is my default (89% coconut). Full fats please! Low fats is thinner and has much less coconut flavour.
5. Makrut lime leaves (see in submit for former identify) – pretty accessible as of late at massive grocery shops and Asian shops. They freeze 100% completely. See FAQ for makes use of for leftover lime leaves (I’ve a good few!) In the event you can’t discover contemporary, nonetheless value making with dried (although please attempt to get contemporary, it imparts particular flavour into the sauce!)
6. Thai Basil has a slight aniseed flavour. Signature herb for Thai crimson curry so strive to not skip it. Italian basil can be utilized as a really respectable substitute – I usually do!
7. Canned lychees and pineapples are completely acceptable if you happen to get model. Asian canned lychees are fairly good, for my part.
8. Duck suggestions – Slashing pores and skin lets fats render out for higher crispy pores and skin. Keep away from chopping the flesh – if you happen to do, juice will come out and the pores and skin received’t be totally crisp. Don’t slash pores and skin all the way in which to the sting, hold it in a single piece (see images in submit). In case your duck has a very thick layer of fats (some American breeds do), rating diagonally – further slashes = extra fats comes out.
Cooking on low warmth = extra fats renders out = crispier pores and skin + much less fats in finish dish (an excessive amount of duck fats may be rubbery and too fatty). So don’t rush this step!
9. Duck doneness – Medium is my most well-liked for curry, mild blushing pink, tender and juicy. You’ll be able to go as little as medium uncommon (assume – steak!) – inside temperature X. Don’t fret if you happen to go over – duck breast remains to be nice even totally cooked at X.
Leftovers will hold for 3 to 4 days within the fridge. Freezes okay! 3 months, thaw, then gently reheat.
Finest technique to make forward (deliberately) – Hold duck breast entire, totally cool, put in containers. Make sauce however do NOT put lychees or basil in. Cool, container. Fridge for each. Day of, pull out of fridge, slice due. Heat sauce, add lychees, simmer 1 min. Stir duck slices in, allow them to heat up gently, stir in basil leaves. SERVE! Doesn’t look the identical as in images as slices are stirred in and pores and skin shouldn’t be uncovered, however all of the flavour is there. Some may argue that is even higher as a result of each duck slice is coated in sauce. 🙂 The truth is, most eating places serve it this fashion.
Leftovers retains for 3 days within the fridge, or freezer for 3 months. It doesn’t trouble me in any respect if the duck pores and skin is sauced up. The truth is, the sauce protects the meat from drying out. Warmth gently so the duck doesn’t get massively overcooked.
Vitamin assuming 5 servings – calculating now! Calculated making a conservative allowance of 5 tablespoons of duck fats that leads to the completed dish (ie the fats poured off a used for cooking plus fats remaining below pores and skin). Excludes rice.
