few cups water ( for boiling duck enough to cover whole duck)
2 pcs star anise
4 slices ginger
1 scallion, cut into halves

* Place duck breast side up on a greased rack in oven preheated to 350 degrees. Set a pan filled with 2 inches of water in bottom of oven. (This is for drippings) or just over pan with aluminium foil will do but it will be a little smoky. Roast for 30 minutes.
