The Birth of Saba’s Happy Duck!

 

No Crying Tiger Here

Only a Happy Duck!

 

Let me tell you a story about a crying tiger who turned into a happy duck.

A few years back I went out to dinner and got a bit drunk.

Ok a lot drunk. That’s not the point!

Anywayz, during dinner I had one of my favorite dishes, Crying Tiger.

It was totally awesome.

This version used wagyu beef and had a salsa on it.

Not your average crying tiger that’s for sure.

The next morning,  when I was no longer drunk.

I got to thinking, why the hell do they call it crying tiger?

For the life of me I couldn’t work it out.

Then it struck me like a lighting bolt. Its cause the tiger had no spice in it life.

So I thought Duck it!!!

I’m going to make my own version with chili.

Lots of chili, and if crying is a must, it going to be tears of joy!

I didn’t have any wagyu lying around, who the duck does right ?

So I opted for duck breast instead.

I then raided the fridge for what herbs I had on hand, then proceeded to scrounger around in the pantry to see what other ingredients I could find  and the end result was this dish.

So that’s how a Crying Tiger became a Happy Duck 😊😊😊

Now as this was way back in 2016 and I hadn’t started the blog yet. I wasn’t making  videos or writing recipes. As such I only took photos and made a slide show to post on my Instagram.

This is the link to the original post I did way back then.

Feel free to give me a like and follow whilst your there 🙂

So since then I have wrote a recipe which I’m still refining from this original, and I will be posting in an up coming post. So keep an eye out for that.

But this was how I made it that faithful morning.
