I've had the Lidl, Aldi and Asda versions of this and they're all really good. I cook and shred mine on a preheated pizza stone and just follow the timings. It's delicious with some spring onion strands and cucumber. It'll stretch to two portions, just about. A nice Friday night treat for a night in, especially if there's a film after with a sweet at half time.

Hi Gareth, I have heard many people say that they get indigestion from cucumber. I don't really know if this is true but I was told that it is the skin that gives people the indigestion. So I always peel the skin off before chopping it. This may be just an old wives tale but it works for me. Cheers mate, still watching everyday. 🤪

Good one Willy, well I've not had any indigestion yet lol

One of the tastiest meals ever, if you want to combat the dryness, I do mine in the air fryer on the bake setting which has a slower fan speed at 180c then when almost cooked turn it up to 200c, it comes out lovely and crispy with a nice moist inside. Thanks for all your great videos Gareth.

If you want to help with the dryness, pour all the drippings back over the meat before shredding it.... Looks like there wasnt a lot with this one but that bit of extra hot duck fat will make a difference. No better slippage juice than duck fat.

[@jamesfnolan6516]

Have had this and loved it. However it is a meal for one. Spread the sauce on the pancake. Take skin off cucumber and put more on. The juice then spreads more and counteracts the dryness of the duck. Use any onions you like but very thinly cut. Lovely Jubbily as we used to say in Nelson Mandela towers

quarrr nothing beats a lovely bit of duck, its my personal favorite from my local chinese. quick tip i like to go for the double shot and use two of the pancakes in one wrap. its absolutely exploding with the flavours especially when you pack it with plenty of duck with the bits and bobs 😋i also recommend going in for some dimsums i would love to see your take on them! try it out, gareth👍

Had this before, and for the money (certainly compared to many takeaways) you get a lot of meat and pancakes, and the taste is just as good, if not better. I still haven't bettered the crispy duck we had at a restaurant in China Town in London the other year, but that was several times the price for several times less meat! lol

Happy bank holiday weekend Gareth and all! Used to love eating duck until the day I was given an egg to incubate in my chicken incubator and a few weeks later out popped, yes you’ve guessed it, a tiny duckling that immediately thought I was Dad (well, hopefully Dad and not Mum 😂). Of course I imaginatively christened it Donald and it turned out to be a girl 🤦🏻‍♂️😂. Never been able to eat duck since, but damn, watching you review this reminded me how delicious it is, and I certainly won’t forget it! Have a great weekend pal and hope you get to take a day off the channel to spend some well deserved time with your family! 👍☀️

[@gerrylewis5281]

This was a great review. 👍👍. Although I get my duck from Lidl they are basically the same as Aldi. Gressingham being the breed of crossbreeding a wild Mallard with a Peking duck. It's a shame that finding duck spring rolls is a bit hit and miss. Your duck looked really great and had my tongue hanging out 🦆🦆🦆😍😍😛😛🥰🥰. Sometimes I do swap out the Hoisin for sweet chilli, but that's the beauty of this kind of meal, you can choose your own flavour to put on. As always, keep up the great work. 👍👍 .

I have these quite a lot, I get the Gressingham one which is normally over £8 now, but last week I got it for £6.25. I do actually cut the meat in half before cooking it then I have two meals out of it. I find one spring onion per half is all you need finely sliced. Yeah the sauce really makes this dish top notch.

Since you had the issue with the weight of steaks in one of your steak reviews I have been weighing the meat products that I buy from Aldi and shock horror 70% of them were under the stated weight by between 7% and 20%. The weight differences were not random, for example all the minced beef was 9% under weight, bacon 11% underweight and so on. I have complained to Aldi customer service and their response was the weight on the packaging is only a guide and does not represent what you may get. Obviously this is a breach of trading standards and when I pointed this out to Aldi they stated that they would refund all the underweight products. So worth checking the weights when you buy them as this seems a deliberate act by the supermarkets.

Yes definitely Steve it's an eye opener isn't it.

In China they use garlic greens (the stuff that grows out of the top of over-ripe garlic bulbs) instead of spring onions in this. It's pungent and delicious. BTW, spoon and smooth the hoi sin sauce on the pancake first.
