Beer duck is a beloved dish enjoyed by many. There are many ways to make beer duck. Today, I'm going to teach you how to make beer duck in a clay pot. Clay pot cooking makes the beer duck more fragrant and tender. The recipe is below, so please check it out!
1. One duck (half a duck), one bottle of beer, 4 slices of ginger, 3 garlic cloves, 4 star anise, 3 g of cinnamon, 2 bay leaves, 3 dried chili peppers, appropriate amount of light soy sauce, appropriate amount of dark soy sauce, 2 small spoons of white sugar, and appropriate amount of salt.

5. Wait until the duck meat is firm and then add two spoons of white sugar, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, and stir-fry until evenly combined;
