Sauce: 1. Place first four ingredients in saucepan. Reduce by half while preparing duck. Use cornstarch slurry to adjust sauce to coat the back of a spoon, but no thicker; set aside.

Duck: 2. Remove skin from both ducks. Remove bones. Cut each duck breast into 1 1/2 to 2 inch long slices. Cut remaining duck into 1 inch cubes.

3. Pour canola oil into large skillet to a depth of 1/4 inch. Preheat oil to medium-high.

4. Lightly season both sides of duck pieces with salt and pepper. Dip into flour, eggs and bread crumbs. Fry until golden on both sides. Place on a paper towel-lined rack. Hold in a 150 degree oven.

Noodles: 5. Break 6 tablespoons vermicelli into 1 inch pieces; fry until puffed. Drain on paper towels. Reserve remaining vermicelli.

Vegetables: 6. Add carrots to skillet of hot oil. When carrots are half cooked (2 1/2 to 3 minutes), add onions. Cook one minute; add garlic. Stir mixture to keep from browning. When onions are translucent, remove from heat. Add peas, tomatoes and chives; toss. Cover; set aside.

7. Place remaining vermicelli in salted boiling water. Cook for 3 minutes. Check for doneness (should be firm but with no hard centers), drain. Toss with butter and crushed chili pepper. Toss well with reserved vegetables.

To serve: 8. Arrange duck, vermicelli and vegetables on plate and ladle with sauce. Garnish with peanuts and cilantro.
