   Step 6

   Add water, just enough to cover the duck pieces, bring to a boil over high heat, then transfer to a casserole dish and simmer over low heat for 30 minutes. Test the duck pieces by inserting chopsticks; if they easily pierce through, the duck is tender enough. Add the arrowhead, reduce the sauce over high heat, and finally garnish with red bell pepper slices and scallion segments.
