    • 1 Tbsp. sweet paprika
    • 1 Tbsp. whole cumin seeds

    • 1/2 tsp white pepper
    •     steamed rice to serve

    Directions

    1. In a medium-size bowl, put mushrooms to soak in sufficient warm water to cover. When soft, after about 15 min, remove from water, cut off and throw away stems and cut caps into 1/4-inch-wide strips. Set aside. In a large saucepan, heat oil over medium heat. Add in garlic, shallots, chile and gingerroot and saute/fry 2 to 3 min. Add in duck and saute/fry till proportionately browned, 5 to 7 min. Add in chile pwdr, paprika and cumin seeds and saute/fry 1 minute more. Add in remaining ingredients, bring to a boil, then simmer till thick, 20 to 25 min. Serve over steamed rice.
    2. Makes 4 to 6 servings.
    3. NOTES : Far East meets American Southwest in this unusual chili which combines the meatiness of shiitake mushrooms with duck, and the spice of gingerroot with the fire of chiles. It actually makes good culinary sense, considering the popularity of warm chile peppers in certain regions of China, as well as elsewhere in Asia.
