Direction

Sliders:

  • Preheat a large skillet or griddle over medium-low heat.
  • Combine ground duck, minced shallot, lime juice, brown sugar and fish sauce in a large bowl, mixing to incorporate uniformly. Divide mixture into 8 patties.
  • Grill patties on the preheated pan about 3-4 minutes per side, until just cooked through.

Slaw:

  • While the patties cook, whisk together mayonnaise, red curry paste, fish sauce and lime juice.
  • Combine Napa cabbage, pineapple and radishes in a large bowl, then toss with the dressing.
  • Add peanuts and cilantro, and toss lightly to combine.

Assemble:

  • To serve, place a slider patty on each of the toasted slider buns. Top with about 2 tablespoons of the slaw, add the top of the bun and secure with a skewer. Serve immediately.
