The ingredients are short and sweet for this simple but wow recipe. Serve wrapped in Chinese pancakes - buy them in Waitrose, or an oriental store if you have one locally. Or you could just eat the turkey/duck on its own. It's also great in an oriental-style salad.

Serves: 4–6

Ingredients

● 2 turkey drumsticks
● 1 jar of hoisin sauce

To serve:
● Chinese pancakes
● Cucumber
● Spring onions
● Plum sauce

Method

● Put your drumsticks in a large saucepan and cover with water.

● Bring to the boil, then turn down the heat. Put a lid on the pan and simmer for two and a half hours, until the meat is falling off the bones.

● Preheat the oven to 200°C/ fan 180°C.

● Remove from the pan, and flake all the meat from the bones, discarding the skin and bones.

● Spread the flaked meat out on a baking sheet or roasting tray and pour over the jar of sauce, toss it to coat the meat well.

● Put into the oven for about 30-40 minutes, turning occasionally, so the meat become crispy.

● Serve with pancakes, cucumber and spring onions cut into thin strips, or with rice or noodles and steamed pak choi.
