Directions:
Directions:
Preheat oven to 325º

Cut off the flap of fat that hangs over the duck's cavity. Sit the trimmed duck on a wire rack or slotted tray over a deep roasting pan and roast for 4 hours.

Turn the oven up to 450º and give a final 30 minutes of intense heat.

Heat the pancakes according to package directions.. Pour the hoisin sauce in a bowl with a spoon.

Cut the cucumber into matchsticks (like you get in a Chinese restaurant)

Cut the scallions lengthways into short strips (again like they do in a Chinese restaurant)

Carefully take the roasting pan out of the oven and transfer the duck onto a board. When you can handle it comfortably, shred it with two forks and set it on the table with the sauce, cucumber and scallion shreds, and pancakes. Wrap the duck meat topped with sauce, cucumber, scallions in the pancakes. Enjoy!

When the duck fat has cooled a little pour into a jar...it makes great fried potatoes.
