Add red curry paste and tomato paste and stir-fry about 3 to 4 minutes or until deep red in color. Deglaze wok with chicken broth and add coconut milk, peanut satay sauce, green beans and tomatoes. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer about 3 minutes. Add duck meat and continue to cook another 3 to 5 minutes or until duck is heated through. Be careful not to overcook. Stir in chopped basil and serve with cooked Jasmine Rice. Garnish with whole basil leaves. Makes 4 to 6 servings.
