Preparation
Step 1
Wash and cut sticks pear, reserve. Wash and drain the arugula, reserve. Unroll the bamboo mat, cut the sheet of sesame soy paper and place on bamboo mat.
Step 2
Spread the slices of duck breast, which you removed the fat.
Step 3
Place the arugula leaves and sticks in the pear lengthwise on the duck breast with 1/4 from the edge of the mat.
Step 4
Wrap the mat on itself around the filling to make a roll end. Wrap with light pressure so as to compress the roll well.
Step 5
Remove the mat. Place the roll on a cutting board or platter. Cut the roll into two using a sharp knife. Align the halves side by side and cut into 3 to obtain 6 maki. Place on a plate with sesame seeds and sprinkle over the last minute with a splash of cointreau. Enjoy fresh!
