I used to chef and I did duck breast in a red wine sauce.Very hot pan, skin side down, few minutes, turn it over to seal it, then into a very hot oven.
While that's on (about 15 minutes?), in a small pan put tinned black cherries in syrup with a decent amount of red wine, high heat, reduce to a sauce.
Get the duck out, let it rest for 5 minutes, slice it, plate it up, add cherries from the sauce on top of the sliced breast, some beside it on the plate, couple of tablespoons of the reduction over the whole lot, serve.

It depends on where you go, some places that are shit sometimes have one amazing dish and visa-versa.My favorite chinese was one based in north cyprus about 6 years ago, they did the most amazing sweet'n'sour prawns, their crispy shreded beef was stunning, and their duck was unlike anywhere else.
I actually cried when they shut down.

No two Chinese takeaways taste the same, it's a minefield.I hate the ones that have very sugary sauces, and ones with watery ones.
Why can;t the just cook their heritage right ffs. Instead of wanking over schoolgirls and fitting cameras on the end of pins?

I cant even in words say what I just found out.. I am SHOCKED and want to tell and let my friends and family be made aware so they can make sure their children are safe!!! Angelica stayed home from school today and thank GOD she did. Because she was on her ipod playing a game called talking angela, which is similar to talking tom, anyway as she is sitting next to me this interactive cat says to her hi angelica where is your brother? She says o hes right here next to me the cat says o cool, then the cat says so what do you do for fun? Ang says I dont know, (now im being quiet and listening because I think its weird this angela cat knows she has a brother and is talking to her like a person) then its voice changes and in some weird robotic voice it says angelica when u date what do u do on your dates? She looked at me got red in the face and said nothing, then it said stick out your touunge, ill stick mine out too, it said what are some things u can do with your tounge? I can find many things to do with my tounge it said it said lets intrract w our toungues. I that point I had heard enough I zaid ang shut it off now! I was freaked out called the police departnrnt they came to the house saif they would have the internet investigations unit andpedofile investigations unit look into it, they called me an hour latet and said something is behind that cat!!! They dont know if it is local or over seas. While the police officer was there and ang was talking to him she told the police officer saturday night her cousin and her were on the app w angela and it asked the girls their names what her brothers name was what school they BOTH went to, and it took a picture of angelica!!! This is under serious investigation right now! When I googled talking angela I cant even begin to tell you what creepy stuff came up! Google it for yourselves please!! But some things are the cat asking girls for their phone numbers! And if theyve had their firat kiss!!! Take this app off your phone please! Theres a big chance thid cpuld be a door for pedofiles.the police said they have seen thing *like* this but never actually through a childs app but that they are not putting it past them! The girls told angela the cat on saturday their names and she had a brother and then on monday morning when angelica turned the app back on, It remebered her name and that she had a brother!!! These things ARENT supposed to ask you questions!!! and especially not questions about dating toungues or kissing!! I am disgusted! I dont feel safe at all right now! Knowing that there was some creep talking to my daughter and my neice through a talking app!!! Please if you have this app or any like it the police are saying take it off of your phone!!! Copy and share and send out PLEASE! This word needs to spread! I pray the ocean county investigators can crack this thing open!!!!!
So please if your KIDS use this app please shut it down. Because SOME KIDS told them the name of the school they went to and is now on red alert at the school, and please PASS this on to ALL your friends.
