Step 2: Deep fry the duck

- Place the duck into the wok. Put the lid on and cook for 10 minutes on medium heat. Turn the duck and put the lid on to cook the duck on the other side for another 10 minutes.
- Remove the duck from wok. Once duck is cool enough, chop it up to serve. Heat up the sauce to drizzle over the duck, squeeze the lime over it and serve.
