You may laugh all you want. You will soon be convinced that this is the best part of the duck after you taste it.

(a) Wash thoroughly 20 pairs of duck feet and plunge them into boiling water for 3 minutes. Take off the skin. Take out all bones without spoiling the shape of the feet. Cut each foot into 2 pieces.

(b) Cut into small pieces the bamboo shoots, mushrooms, and water chestnuts.

(c) Have a hot stove. Oil the frying-pan and fry the feet for 5 minutes. Add salt and the bamboo shoots, chestnuts and mushrooms. Continue to fry for 5 minutes after having mixed well.
