1 Chinese barbecue duck
1 long red chilli, seeded and finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, crushed
2 cm piece ginger, peeled and grated

50 mls duck juices

50 mls fish sauce
50 mls soy sauce
1 teaspoon caster sugar

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

50 mls Shaoxing rice wine

Trim the choy sum, cut into short lengths and halve any thick stalks.
