Duck Rice
Duck rice () is a Southeast Asian meat dish usually consumed by the Chinese diaspora in Maritime Southeast Asia, made of either braised or roasted duck and plain white rice. The braised duck is usually cooked with yam and shrimp. It can be served simply with plain white rice and a thick dark sauce; side dishes such as braised hard-boiled eggs, preserved salted vegetables or hard beancurd may be added. Teochew boneless duck rice is a similar, but more refined dish; due to the slightly tougher texture of duck, the duck is artfully deboned and sliced thinly for the convenience of the diner, allowing the sauces to seep into the meat. Hainanese chicken rice and other similar dishes are frequently served in this style due to its popularity. This dish can commonly be found in Singapore food centers. In Thailand, this dish is called ''khao na pet'' (ข้าวหน้าเป็ด; lit: "rice topped with duck"), and is sold by street vendors or in restaurants inside shopping malls ...
