Method:

1. Pour a kettleful of boiling water slowly over the duck. Drain it and rub it dry with absorbent paper. Rub the skin and the inside of the duck with the salt, and hang it up to dry in an airy spot for 5 hours.

2. Place the duck on a spit and grill it under a moderate heat until slightly brown. Mix the corn flour with the soy sauce, malt sugar and water until well blended. Rub the mixture on the duck.

3. Put the duck on a wire rack in a preheated oven at 200°C (350°F)/Gas 4 and roast for a further hour.

4. Chop the duck through the bones into large bite-sized pieces. Arrange, reassembled on a serving dish in the form of a duck, and serve with Aromatic Salt and Pepper Mix (refer recipe) as a dip.
