Method
- Prepare the* mlinci.* Put the flour into a mixing bowl and create a well. Add the egg and enough water to make a stiff dough. Break off a golf ball-sized lump and roll until 3mm/1/8in thick. Repeat with the remaining pastry. Heat a small frying pan. Add the dough discs and dry-fry until browned on both sides. Set aside to cool.
- Preheat the oven to 220C/425F/Gas 7. Heat an oven-proof frying pan. Add the duck breast, skin-side down, and cook for 4-5 minutes. Transfer the duck (skin-side up) to the oven and roast for 15-20 minutes, or until the duck is cooked through.
- Meanwhile, combine all the ingredients for the cucumber side dish in a small bowl. Garnish with a sprinkling of paprika.
- Bring a large pan of water to the boil. Break the dry-fried mlinci into large pieces and drop into the water. Boil for five minutes, or until soft.
- Remove the duck from the oven and set on a chopping board to rest, reserving the cooking juices.
- Drain the mlinci then add to the pan with the duck juices and put back on the heat.
