Duck with vegetable fried rice

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 200C/fan 180/gas 6. Place a large, deep fat frying pan over a high heat. Season the duck breasts with skin and add to the hot pan, skin-side down. Cook for 3 minutes, turning halfway, until browned all over.
2. Transfer to a small roasting tin and cook in the oven for 12-15 minutes, until medium-rare. Set aside, loosely covered with foil, to rest for 5 minutes.
3. While the duck is resting, tip away most of the fat from the frying pan and return to a medium-high heat. Take a pack of stir-fry vegetables, set any leaves aside and halve any vegetables, if Chinese egg fried rice, stir for 1 minute, then add then set aside leaves and a dash of water. Stir-fry for 1 minute, to just wilt the leaves.
