You can find this delicious slow cooker duck wraps recipe on page 127 of The Ultimate Slow Cooker Cookbook. Cooked slow and low for around 8 hours, the tender duck will simply fall off the bone. Ready to be wrapped in tortillas with spring onions, cucumber and hoisin sauce in this slow cooker take on the classic Chinese takeaway dish. So this slow cooked hoisin duck wraps is hands down my son’s favourite recipe. We tried hoisin duck wraps at a festival once and loved them so much, I just had to try and recreate them at home using my slow cooker. The duck cooks so well in the slow cooker; the tender, juicy meat just falls off the bone.

Ingredients for slow cooker duck wraps
1 large onion, sliced
2 duck legs
3 tablespoons of soy sauce
½ teaspoon of Chinese five spice
1 tablespoon of runny honey
A tablespoon of brown sugar
1 teaspoon of garlic granules
1 teaspoon of sesame oil
To serve:
2 large or 4 small flour tortillas
5 spring onions, sliced into matchsticks
¼ cucumber, sliced into matchsticks or shredded
½ bag of lamb’s lettuce
3-4 tablespoons of hoisin sauce
Method
So first put the sliced onion into your slow cooker. Pat dry the duck legs with kitchen paper, then place them on top of the onion.
In a bowl, mix together the soy sauce, Chinese five spice, runny honey, brown sugar, garlic granules and sesame oil. Brush the mixture onto your duck legs, then cook on low for about 8 hours.
When the duck legs have finished cooking, you can finish them off in a preheated oven at 200°C /400°F/gas 6 for 8–10 minutes, or in the air fryer for 5 minutes at 200°C, if you want super-crispy skin!
Then shred the duck and divide between the flour tortillas. Then add the sliced spring onion and cucumber and some lamb’s lettuce. Drizzle over the hoisin sauce, then roll up your tortillas. I like to serve my slow cooker duck wraps with some chunky chips on the side.
