While watching Dark Night tonight, it is also our Duck Night.
We just can’t get over the Soy Sauce Duck (Lor Ark) yet, not yet. In Japan recently, I saw this flying duck over our heads and we said: Flying Lor Ark.
Oh no, what on earth were we thinking then?
Anyway, after coming back from Japan, we decided to take a break from our normal sushi cum ramen diet, make a switch to local dishes, so tonight, we had what else other than… deng deng deng! Lor Ark!
We had a slight adjustment in the previous recipe, in the way we make the sauce. Instead of just marinating the duck with the normal sauce, we just heat the sauce so that the sugar can be easily diluted into the sauce. Also, we quadruple the amount of onions to 100g. We find that the previous sauce were a bit diluted so we continue cooking the sauce and reduce it by half.
The end result:

The Lor Ark is indeed tastier! Brighter colour, stronger flavours, hmm... Lovely Lor Ark.
Okay, for now, some photos from Kyoto: 
We went to this castle in Kyoto, quite a nice place.
That's it for now, in the next post, we will post more photos from Kyoto, and then Mt Koya and lastly, Tokyo.
Stay tuned!

Beautiful photos, and that dish is gorgeous!
When I hear Wa Wa, and look up I think Foi Gras :) Actually hubby loves duck, so I make it at least once every two months...
OMG!! Your 鹵鴨 looks so mouth-watering ... I almost feel like grabbing one piece off from the screen LOL!!
Will definitely try out someday ... Perhaps, not duck but with chicken ... So, 鹵雞 ??
Oh, would love to visit Japan someday! I was there for only less than 24 hours!! Not enough of Nippon! So much thing to see!

Chef E: Oh ya, forget about Foi Gras, one of my favourites too, but not so nice to eat everyday due to high cholesterol as well as animal cruelty.
Dodol: You must visit there one of these days! Japan is such a good place for scenery & food!
To Dodol: This recipe can be used for 鹵雞 as well. ;)
Some chinese five spice powder in addition to it will enhance it flavours further.
